Norway threatens $100,000 daily fine on Meta over data

The Hindu  

Norway's data protection agency said Monday it would ban Facebook and Instagram owner Meta from using the personal information of users for targeted advertising, threatening a $100,000 daily fine if it continues. "The Norwegian Data Protection Authority considers that the practice of Meta is illegal and is therefore imposing a temporary ban of behavioural advertising on Facebook and Instagram," it said in a statement. Meta suffered a major setback earlier this year when European regulators dismissed the legal basis Meta had used to justify gathering users' personal data for use in targeted advertising. Meta suffered another major setback earlier this month when the European Court of Justice rejected its various workarounds and empowered antitrust regulators to take data privacy issues into account.
