brian: separate users from usage.nfortunately, sometimes we focus on the data we are given, not the data we need. we can get the data we need from third-party sources. i think you will see consistently and even the company has acknowledged there has been a reduction in usage of the platform. that is not to say they are you losing users. their overall advantage is substantial. itt is among the reasons why is compelling. from an advertiser perspective, you can also find substantial number of users in other places. you just can't find the tonnage and one single place. caroline: talking of tonnage, it is interesting that facebook is talking of a family of services. talking about how 2.1 billion people use facebook, instagram, and whatsapp every day on average. they are trying to bring this beast together even though perhaps instagram has always been done well with not being associated from facebook. zuckerberg knows he needs to do that before potential regulatory things. personally, i do not think congress will get their
