Volgens Reuters heeft Meta voorgesteld om in de Europese Unie een maandelijks abonnementstarief van 10 euro in rekening te brengen voor Facebook- of Instagram-desktopabonnementen zonder reclame. Dit abonnementenaanbod is bedoeld om te voldoen aan lokale privacyregelgeving en concurrentievoorschriften. Reuters meldt oktober 2023:
Meta Platforms (META.O) is exploring a plan that could make users in the European Union shell out as much as $14 to access ad-free versions of Instagram or Facebook or agree to personalized ads for the free versions, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday.
Under the plan, Meta would charge roughly 10 euros ($10.46) a month on a desktop for a Facebook or Instagram account, and about 6 euros for each additional linked account, the report said, citing people familiar with the proposal.
