(Facebook Q2 10Q: Some of our metrics [are] affected by applications on mobile devices that automatically contact our servers for regular updates with no user actions involved, and this activity can cause system to count the user associated with such a device as an active user on the day such contact occurs. The impact of this automatic activity on our metrics varies by geography because mobile usage varies in different regions of the world. In addition, our data regarding the geographic location of our users is estimated based on a number of factors, such as the user's IP address and self-disclosed location.
