Explanation

Tom Anderson, co-founder of MySpace, was automatically added as the first 'friend' to every new MySpace account. With MySpace's peak having hundreds of millions of users, Tom amassed the largest 'friends list' on the platform - the '233 million close personal friends' refers to his universal default friend status. Chris DeWolfe was MySpace's CEO but not the default friend. Om Malik is a tech blogger, and Lawrence Lessig is a law professor - neither had hundreds of millions of social media friends.
