Meta rolled out an ad-free subscription service in the European Union in 2023, but some think that a US ad-free rollout remains highly unlikely.
Meta is considering rolling out an ad-free subscription service in the UK, following a settlement with a UK-based campaigner.
The company didn’t provide a timeline for when the new feature could roll out but said it “will share further information in due course,” The Guardian reports.
Tanya O’Carroll launched a lawsuit against Meta in 2022, claiming it had breached UK data regulations because it failed to respect her right to demand that Facebook stop collecting and processing her data to target her with personalized adverts.
“This is an individual settlement, but I believe its ramifications extend far beyond me,” said O’Carroll.
