Adtech giant Meta's bid to keep tracking and profiling users of Facebook and Instagram in Europe in spite of the bloc's comprehensive data protection laws Adtech giant Meta's bid to keep tracking and profiling users of Facebook and Instagram in Europe in spite of the bloc's comprehensive data protection laws is facing another privacy rights challenge.
Meta paid was ordered to pay a €1.2 billion fine last year and now tries a different approach to avoid similar fines in the future. This approach (“pay for privacy”) will be tried in court and this is where you declare that “Nothing will happen”? Really?
Such a large fine can probably be tied up in court for a long time.
My point is that Meta is constantly challenged by the EU and is forced to change their data-pig behaviour, so the claim that nothing ever happens is false.
