Facebook has announced yet another measurement error,Hard Soap Hard Soap (1977) the fourth time the company has come forward to admit a discrepancy in its calculations since September.
SEE ALSO: Facebook’s fake news fix comes way too lateThis time the error involved undercounting traffic from publishers who used Instant Articles, the platform where media outlets post content directly to the social network. Facebook said a software update caused mobile traffic from iPhone users to be undercounted from Sept. 20 to Nov. 30.
Some publishers traffic may have been undercounted by 10 to 20 percent, according a publisher speaking to the Wall StreetJournal.
The latest mistake is quite damning given the amount of effort Facebook has put into luring publishers into using the platform. Instant Articles load in milliseconds while similar articles posted from third-party websites can take 3.66 seconds, Facebook reported.
