EU's says meta pay or consent violate competition law.

European Union regulators say Meta violated the bloc's new competition law in requiring Instagram and Facebook users to pay if they don't want their personal data used to generate targeted ads.

"We want to empower citizens to be able to take control over their own data and choose a less personalised ads experience," Margrethe Vestager, the European Commission's executive vice president for competition policy, said in a statement Monday.
