With a fine of only $100,000 Norway could destroy Facebook's & Instagram's business model relying on personalized ads.

😁

Meta was also recently ordered to pay a thousand dollars to every brazilian who can prove they were using Facebook in a specific year. Though they are still fighting back on that decision and no payment was made yet.

This will probably be changed into some fixed payment to the government instead, if not overturned completely, but it would be fun to see the whole country getting some extra paychecks for using Facebook.

Facebook should pay it. Imagine the user uptick when people think other countries might get the same payout.
