Excerpts:
"- People lie about their age, especially of you are under 13 years old.
– The stats are also skewed by people having more than one account. I have 3 + 5 dummy accounts for clients (used for administration purposes). For each of these, the age is set to match the target market
– We also have people telling the world that they are younger than what they really are. Like when a 34 year old person say she is only 24.
This clearly indicates just how inaccurate our social stats really are. It's not that Facebook is lying about the numbers; the problem is that people aren't being completely honest about their age. (…)"
