Not only do the numbers look small, the explanations seem very poor. For example:
>We began our investigation after reviewing public reporting...
So what Meta is saying here is that despite Russia having started a land war in Europe, Meta didn't do any pro-active investigation and anti-influence operations. Instead it waited until public reporting uncovered that their service had acted as a useful idiot for fascists. Think about the level of information and data that Meta has access to that it could use to detect and prevent attacks, and instead your average journalist is more likely to actually uncover these attacks.
