UK's CMA opens investigation into Meta's terms for publishers and advertisers

Britain's ​competition regulator ‌on Friday ​said it has opened ‌an investigation into whether Facebook parent Meta was imposing ‌exploitative terms on publishers ‌and advertisers.

The CMA said Meta's commercial terms, which ⁠Meta ​planned ⁠to revise on November 20 but ⁠has since put on ​hold, could allow it to ⁠collect content from publishers' ⁠websites ​and use it to develop and ⁠provide its own products and ⁠services.
