It looks like Apple isn’t the only technology firm that the European Commission has its eye on — Meta has just received a letter damning the company’s ‘pay or consent model’, and the Commission has demanded a response by September 1 this year.
If Meta doesn’t reply? “CPC authorities can decide to take enforcement measures, including sanctions,” says the letter. The Commission evidently sees that there is a legal problem with Meta’s model, and if Zuckerberg’s company isn’t careful, it could become a cropper akin to Apple and the anti-competition lawsuit it faced.
