Facebook and Instagram to Offer Subscription for No Ads in Europe | Meta
about.fb.comTo comply with evolving European regulations, we're introducing a new subscription option in the EU, EEA and Switzerland.
I had turned targeted ads off, on Facebook and Instagram. I still got ads but they were not targeted based on my data. I could live with that
Today I got a popup requiring me to pick an option of either accepting targeted ads or pay the equivalent of €13/$14 for an addfree experience across all meta platforms.

Do you seriously believe that ad-free means they’re not still tracking the hell outta you and aggregating from many sources you probably don’t know about like Patreon and shit?
Edit: and on the subject of personalized ads, I find it more worriesome when you can’t see whats going on. Its a weird paradox
