STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOSOSLO - Meta Platforms will ask a court in Norway on Tuesday to stop a fine the country's data regulator has imposed on the owner of Facebook and Instagram for breaching users' privacy, in a case that could have wider European implications.
Meta Platforms is asking for a temporary injunction against the order, which imposes a daily fine through to Nov. 3. "We have already announced our intention to transition to the legal basis of Consent for personalised advertising for people in the EU and EEA," Meta said in an emailed statement to Reuters.
"Datatilsynet will argue that there is no basis for an injunction," Tobias Judin, the regulator's head of international section, told Reuters.
