Facebook and Instagram users in the European Union will be charged up to €12.99 a month for ad-free versions of the social networks as a way to comply with the bloc’s data privacy rules - eviltoast

Awful to see our personal privacy and social lives being ransomed like this. €10 seems like a price gouge for a social media site, and I’m even seeing a price tag of 150SEK (~€15) In Sweden.

    But you/they can still use the free, ad-supported tier like before. I don’t see any change to people who don’t pay.

    It just added the option to get rid of ads and trackers in exchange for money.
