This was written in 2014, the researchers saw a small trend and extrapolated that the trend would continue, causing 80% user loss from 2014 to 2017.
Since 2014, FB's active user count has increased from 1 billion to 1.7 billion and the stock price from ~60 to 120.
This article is a great example of a very terrible and very wrong prediction.
