Semi-related: What's preventing FB from artificially creating users themselves - to make their network look gigantic. I feel like FB would not be able to continue the growth it has - which begs the question, if they faked it internally, would we know? /tinfoil.
- eru 14y agoFaking it internally would probably stray too close to fraud for comfort. They don't want that liability. Not doing anything against users creating duplicate accounts can be gotten away with easier: Just blame it on negligence, or incompetence.
- stfu 14y agoI for once have at least create five to ten Facebook accounts myself, Each time I get into a situation where I am forced to use Facebook I create a new throw away account. As I have a deep distaste for Facebook's approach to privacy and overall business practice these unavoidable logins occur only every few month or so. I think creating and abounding accounts might be the least useful user interaction they can get.
