They are. Facebook is absolutely telling the truth about this metric. 750 million active users in the last 30 days, 50% of that daily and 80% of 750mil weekly.

- code_duck 15y agoThat does not mean 750 million individual humans, guaranteed.
- WalterGR 15y agoWhy not? Do you have insight into how Facebook calculates that number?
- code_duck 15y agoAre you serious?
- WalterGR 15y agoMSN Messenger has >300 million users. QQ has three times that. Why do you find it so inconceivable that Facebook has 750 million active users? I don't have time for the Socratic method.
- code_duck 15y agoOkay, I'll spell it out for you in capital letters: NUMBER OF USER ACCOUNTS IS NOT THE SAME THING AS NUMBER OF INDIVIDUAL PERSONS. THE NUMBER OF USER ACCOUNTS IS ALWAYS HIGHER THAN NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS. Did that help?
- edanm 15y agoI don't mean to nitpick, I'm genuinely curious: how do you know Facebook is telling the truth about the figures? I always assumed they were telling the truth because they're legally bound to (and because if they're caught lying, it would suck badly for them). I'm just wondering if you have any more info than that, since you seem so emphatic about it.
