Meta is making users who opted out of AI training opt out again, watchdog says | EU users have less than two weeks to opt out of Meta's AI training.


EU users have less than two weeks to opt out of Meta’s AI training.

Privacy watchdog Noyb sent a cease-and-desist letter to Meta Wednesday, threatening to pursue a potentially billion-dollar class action to block Meta's AI training, which starts soon in the European Union. That's a seeming violation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Noyb alleged. Previously, Meta "argued (in respect to EU-US data transfers) that a social network is a single system that does not allow to differentiate between EU and non-EU users, as many nodes (e.g. an item linked to an EU and a non-EU user) are shared," Noyb noted.
