Let's assume that half of them are fakes. Now they have "only" 1.1 billion users every month. The number is still staggering.

Yea, that is still a huge number, but for advertisers that use FB as a platform is a huge waste of money and FB could easily abuse that as well.
Advertisers in any medium probably have to accept that some people aren't paying any attention to the ad. High-viewership events cost more to advertise on, but a significant portion of the audience is going to wander off at any given commercial break.
