Meta (Facebook / Instagram) to move to a "Pay for your Rights" approach
In order to bypass the GDPR, Meta apparently plans to move to a "Pay for your Rights" approach
The Wall Street Journal reported that Meta plans to move to a "Pay for your Rights" model, where EU users will have to pay $ 168 a year (€ 160 a year) if they don't agree to give up their fundamental right to privacy on platforms such as Instagram and Facebook. History has shown that Meta's regulator, the Irish DPC, is likely to agree to any way that Meta can bypass the GDPR. However, the company may also be able to use six words from a recent Court of Justice (CJEU) ruling to support its approach.

So it's time for our EU politicians to step up then....
Hey, US, where are you in this? We need you guys to get on board with the right to privacy...
HAHAHAHA
...we can't even get corporate money out of campaign finances...
Us in California are leading in the US. But yes
US government here, we buy the data from parties like Meta to save on the costs of surveillance and to get around laws that prevent us from spying on citizens. It's not in our interest to legislate restrictions
Consumer protection is not on our political radar. Maybe California will do something.
