Re:Meta Fined $843M by EU over Marketplace Ads by dgroshev on Thursday November 14, 2024 @12:31PM (#42138672)
"Normal" online advertising is neutral with respect to companies bidding on placements. Not so much with Facebook, which is under no obligation to run a bid on every ad they serve. Some of those ads are dedicated Marketplace ads, and AcmeShop can't bid on them, or even limit access to the data that Facebook collected while performing their contractual duties to AcmeShop.
