One last FB post

Facebook is hemorrhaging users in the US, losing about 15 million people since 2017. The largest drop is among teen users and millennials.

That's great news! Shows there's hope yet for the younger generation. I award them one puppy point.

Instead of spending hrs reading: conspiracy theories (or make up their own), nonsense about vaccinations, and being clueless about science...they can actually use the Internet as an educational tool.

The decline in the millennial segments may be a result of younger folks being more tech savvy and aware of the consequences of Facebook's data and privacy policies.

Additionally, the millennial demographic skews Democratic, and Facebook has been accused of allowing Russian actors to post false and inflammatory content to bolster Donald Trump during the 2016 election cycle.

In another words they are tech savvy enough to understand it isn't that complicated for the Russian FSB to setup a FB account to spread disinformation. Time to award another puppy point to the youngsters.
