Firefox not even mentioned

With Firefox below 4% of traffic [1], it's not surprising that Safari and Chrome are the browsers Facebook is primarily thinking about.

Convenient excuse when having no interest in privacy.
Statcounter counts traffic from their web analytics service installed on ~2m site. And more generic question: all those traffic analytics services rely on javascript modules and if majority of firefox users block them, all this data is heavily biased in favor of “plain” chrome and safari.
Most traffic is through the mobiles apps anyways, so the traffic to FB from FF is a statistical blip.
my router is blocking this domain as privacy intrusive... can the data be misleading then?
