Prefer us on GoogleThe Italian Data Protection Authority has fined Meta Platforms €805 million for accessing photos and videos in the mobile albums of Android users without their explicit consent. The regulator stated that Meta accessed photos, videos, and related metadata stored on the smartphones of Italian users through the Facebook app, without obtaining user consent or adequately informing them, affecting approximately 20 million Android users. The authority reserves the right to investigate new features set to launch in 2026 that allow cloud processing of content in user albums. The fine amounts to about 0.47% of Meta's global revenue.
