83 Juta Akun Facebook Palsu

Dahlan Dahi 

Bagi Facebook saat ini, dengan hampir 1 miliar register user, angka 83 juta tentu kecil saja.

Sekarang perusahaan social media terbesar itu bisa dengan tenang mengumumkan 83 juta akun mereka palsu. Soalnya, 83 juta kecil saja dibanding user Facebook yang lebih dari 950 juta.

Tapi, 83 juta itu besar, lo, terutama bagi perusahaan online yang baru dimulai. Mashable menulis, 83 juta hampir sama dengan seluruh penduduk Mesir, satu negeri yang besar. Kalau dibanding Singapura, itu berarti lebih dari 15 kali penduduk negeri itu.

Cerita lengkapnya dari Mashable:


The number of fake accounts on Facebook is roughly the size of Egypt’s population and larger than most of the world’s countries, the company disclosed this week.
In a 10-Q filing, Facebook acknowledged that a total of 8.7% — or 83 million — accounts on the network are bogus. Of that 8.7%, 4.8% are duplicate accounts, 2.4% are user-misclassified accounts and 1.5% are “undesirable” accounts, a.k.a. spam.
The figure is a bit higher than the company’s previous estimates. In a March filing, Facebook claimed about 5% to 6% of its accounts — or 40.3 million to 50.7 million — were fake. The company also says it bans at least 20,000 accounts daily and estimates about 600,000 accounts per day are compromised.
Taking the latest figures into account, Facebook’s latest claim of 955 million active users would be downgraded to 872 million.
