I would say a good billion of Facebook users are either highly inactive, actually inactivated but Facebook is still counting them, scammers and porn bots, and dead people. Many people made an account in like 2011 and promptly forgot their password and never logged in again I'm sure. And lord knows Facebook isn't honest about anything.
I'm surprised Twitter is so comparatively small but it's also a weird site in that you literally talk into a void, at least Facebook you know your uncle is reading your post or whatever.
jThe post says monthly active users..
I don't know if they still do, but Facebook used to count viewing a web page with a Facebook "like" button as being an active user
