Facebook has officially hit 2 billion users

Facebook has hit 2 billion users.

CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced the milestone on his Facebook page on Tuesday, only a few days after he shared the company's new mission statement of "bringing the world closer to together."

Shares of Facebook didn't immediately react to the news.

With 2 billion users, Facebook is used by roughly two-thirds of the world's population with internet access, according to 2016 data from the International Telecommunications Union.
