Spain Investigates Meta's Privacy Violations

Spain Launches Investigation into Metas Potential Privacy ViolationsThe Spanish government, led by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, has initiated an investigation into Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, following allegations of user privacy breaches. The probe was sparked by international research highlighting a covert tracking mechanism used by Meta to monitor Android users web activity, potentially without their consent. The investigation aims to scrutinize the technical aspects of this mechanism and its adherence to privacy laws, which could set a precedent for other European nations to examine Metas data practices more closely.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
