Meta Platforms asserts the European Commission ignored market realities and provided no evidence of harm to competitors, claiming Facebook Marketplace expansion does not hinder rivals.
They argue that protecting incumbent providers from competition distorts competition law, which should focus on protecting consumers and the competitive process instead.

The investigation by the EC found that Meta imposed unfair trading conditions on classified ad competitors by linking their service directly to Facebook.
