I had pictures of an abroad internship from winter 2014-15 that I was able to find last year as I was aggregating all my pictures.

But I just checked their filings, the 700M figure is indeed "registered" users, not "active" ones. Which makes a lot more sense. There are not a lot of services with 700M monthly active users out there.

Storing data for almost 10% of the human population. That's impressive.
How many duplicates tho? Accounts are only tied to emails AFAIK, how can they tell I'd be the same user behind 2 accounts?

Granted, it's kind of splitting hair considering it's still gonna be in the 9 figures, which is impressive regardless of where it is in that range.
