How much Facebook makes from ads in the US
Facebook is the second-largest digital ad platform in the U.S.
Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg discusses seeing Instagram as a threat and buying the company, and Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., argues whether or not this is an anti-competitive acquisition.
Facebook is expected to rake in more than $31.4 billion in net U.S. advertising revenue by the end of 2020, according to June 22 data from market research company eMarketer.

Facebook is the second-largest digital ad platform in the U.S. after Google and just ahead of Amazon. Its ad revenue will continue to increase through 2020, though eMarketer estimates that the company's growth will be "severely depressed ... compared with earlier expectations."
