This don't change my comment still many of them are fakes. I know people who have 5-6 accounts active at one time playing different games with 500+ friends on it. Many of those "friends" also are fakes, some even with the same profile picture of "real person" with fake data but I have nothing against FB, every medium is abused.

It's just interesting that not a single research was done on this topic that I know about. :)

Why do your friends have 5+ accounts opened? To get around limits on games?

Game limits, not wanting to share private account with some random folks used in games or for commercial purposes aka selling account later on and I can tell that this business is booming! :)

I used to create new accounts each time when I logged into facebook. Better than to remember passwords.

There's no way I'm visiting that URL.

Why is that? Is there something intrinsic in that url that is suspicious?

Person has a public karma of 59, using an IP to a direct VPS that allows bitcoin for payment. It has multiple business names in the DNS and points to a naked .ogg file. Yeah I wouldn't click on that either.

I've heard that you count as a monthly active user if you sign into something else using your FB account. If true that would inflate the number quite a bit

Bots are active though, right?

Yeah, but they’re not looking at ads or providing useful data for brokers.
