The rest came after Facebook users flagged the offending content for review. The report also doesn't cover how much inappropriate content Facebook missed. Facebook said it removed 2.5 million pieces of content deemed unacceptable hate speech during the first three months of this year, up from 1.6 million during the previous quarter. Facebook previously estimated fake accounts as accounting for 3% to 4% of its monthly active users. Tuesday's report said Facebook disabled 583 million fake accounts during the first three months of this year, down from 694 million during the previous quarter.
