Re: So 6 to 9 million fake accounts?

You're comparing the number of fake "likes" here with the overall number of Facebook profiles - but shouldn't the number of fake "likes" in this instance be taken as a percentage of the overall number of likes for the page in question, and that percentage then be applied to the number of profiles Facebook claims to have?

Suddenly, it's a whole lot more than 0.5%
