Today, Wednesday 6 September, Oslo District Court ruled in the case between Meta and the Data Protection Authority. The court decided in favour of Data Protection Authority.

There’s no way Meta will not appeal. I’m sure it’ll end up in our supreme courts eventually.

This was the appeal. They lost

It was the appeal to the original fine by the DPA, but they can (and probably will) still appeal to higher courts.

Yeah, it is expected that they will appeal, but it’s still an important signal from the courts.

A decade late imo, but at least something is finally happening.
