Lots of people here simply thinking it's a question of whether this is something you'd buy, as if the EU regulators are going to countenance this for so much as a femtosecond.

They will not, and the implied quid-pro-quo of "extreme ongoing privacy violation is what we get for not charging people" will make them more angry, not less, and is an _extremely_ dumb idea for them to be pushing in this context because it actually cements regulators' belief that Meta has no interest whatsoever in behaving itself.

The EU is not empowered to let Meta break the law. This is NOT a thing.
