    I think your stats aren’t really comparable, but the gist of it is correct. However, that’s where the problem lies.

    Facebook claims it cannot moderate to the necessary levels because it has too many users. Turned around though, it has so many users because it is not being forced to bear the costs of content moderation. It’s externalizing the cost (distribution of child pornography) while keeping the profits. Society has to decide whether having a rich Facebook is worth everyone else bearing the costs for it.
