Current estimate of the population of China is 1.37 billion, and India 1.26 billion.
So does that mean Facebook is now the largest affiliated group of human beings ever?
- umanwizard 10y agoSet of all Christians?
- ghurtado 10y agoFor a flexible enough definition of "affiliation", sure.
- robotresearcher 10y agoVia nation state opt-ins we have larger groups of people like the United Nations, Commonwealth (2.2B), OECD, NATO, etc. On an personal opt-in basis, the Catholic Church has 1.27B now, so Facebook is beating that. So yes, maybe Facebook has now become the largest single-org individual opt-in in history. Anyone know of a competitor?

- dredmorbius 10y agoUpwards of 3 billion last I checked. Up to 3.179 billion: http://plus.miernicki.com/ http://plus.miernicki.com/ Note that these are Google registrations, which include ... numerous things. I suspect most are Android activations. The data were the basis for my own estimates of G+ user activity -- only 9% of the (then) 2.2 billion G+ profiles showed any public activity, far fewer than that if you were looking for activity in the past month. https://ello.co/dredmorbius/post/naya9wqdemiovuvwvoyquq https://ello.co/dredmorbius/post/naya9wqdemiovuvwvoyquq
