Facebook Losing Users In The US

Facebook's global growth has been lower than average for the second month straight, reported to Inside Facebook.
Over the past 12 months, Facebook typically gained 20 million new users per month. In April, Facebook had only 13.9 million new users, and then only 11.8 million people joined in May. Facebook occasionally has had low growth numbers before, but they have never been low for consecutive months, said Inside Facebook.
The United States lost 5.8 million active users in May, the first drop in users in the past year. Canada has also lost a substantial number of active users, about 1.52 million in May, though Inside Facebook notes that the total number of active Canadian users has been fluctuating all year.
Norway, Russia and the United Kingdom have also lost 100,000 or more users, according to the Inside Facebook Gold data
