The European Commission has ordered Meta to “bring the conduct effectively to an end,” but didn’t specify what actions should be taken. Meta was also hit with a record-breaking $1.3 billion fine by the EU last year for transferring the Facebook data of EU citizens to the US.

Meta is in hot water in Europe once again. The European Competition Commission issued the Facebook and Instagram parent company with a fine on Thursday to the tune of 798 million euros ($843 million) over "abusive practices.

Meta has been fined €798m (£664m) for breaking competition law by embedding Facebook Marketplace within its social network. The European Commission said this meant alternative classified ads services had faced "unfair trading conditions", making it harder for them to compete.
