100M Facebook Users Are Not Human

Apparently not everyone on Facebook has an actual face. A new analysis of Facebook user data has found that of the site's much-boasted-about 1 billion users, only 889.3 million of them are actual people, reports Quartz. The other 100 million? Probably brands, pets, parodies and kitchen appliances. Yet Facebook is still including those accounts in its "active monthly user" figures. Facebook claimed recently that its active users had hit 1.1 billion, reports TechCrunch. But the study says that won't actually happen with real, live human beings until 2014. (More Facebook stories.)
