Meta announces policy changes for users in Europe

Meta has announced plans to give users more control over how they use Instagram and Facebook in countries that are part of the European Union, the European Economic Area and Switzerland. This change comes as Meta prepares for new Digital Market (DMA) regulatory requirements that will come into effect in March 2024 across Europe. DMA is committed to creating fairer competition in the technology industry.

"By giving users more control now, Meta is trying to get ahead of the regulatory requirements that DMA will impose on large technology companies like Meta in Europe."

🚀 In order to adapt to the new DMA regulatory requirements, Meta is committed to investing significant resources in complying with the law, as well as improving users' control over their data and experience on the Meta platforms.

• 📌 The DMA is part of a larger European Union strategy to promote fair competition, innovation and consumer choice in the digital marketplace.

🚀 Meta will soon start sending messages to its users in Europe explaining how they can control the sharing of their data between Instagram and Facebook.
