Meta is appealing an EU ruling that its ad-supported model violates the Digital Markets Act. The company claims the decision is incorrect and overlooks a prior ruling by the European Court of Justice. The European Commission found that Meta's choice between paying for an ad-free service or using a free ad-supported model breached the DMA. Meta's legal vice president argues that the Commission has disregarded a key judgment confirming that users can provide consent through such choices. Various European courts have supported business models offering paid subscription alternatives.
Meta's appeal challenges the EU's conclusion that its ad-supported model violates the Digital Markets Act, claiming it misinterprets legal precedent established by the European Court.
Tim Lamb, Meta's VP of Legal, asserts that the Commission’s decision overlooks a significant ruling from the CJEU that validated offering users a choice between subscription and ad-supported services.
