As reported by The Wall Street Journal
(https://www.wsj.com/articles/metas-targeted-ad-model-faces-restrictions-in-europe-11670335772),
the EDPB has decided that Meta cannot force users to agree to personalized ads. In May 2018, when
the GDPR came into force in the EU, Meta Ireland Ltd. believed it could "bypass" the
requirement to get opt-in consent from users, by simply adding a provision in the terms and
conditions. On 25 May 2018, the digital rights organization noyb filed complaints with the relevant
Data Protection Authorities (DPAs). Now, 4.5 years later, the European Data Protection Board (EDPB)
found Meta's alleged "bypass" of the GDPR illegal. The EDPB also rejected the view of the
Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) who previously sided with Meta, after taking four years to
investigate the case.
