Meta Plans to Charge $14 a Month for Ad-Free Instagram or Facebook::European users would have option to pay fee or agree to personalized ads, according to company’s pitch to regulators
After so many rumors about Facebook charging for access, it's hard to take this seriously.
I think this will be aimed at mainly EU members after a law banning targeted advertising (without explicit consent) comes in which will mean a reduction in ad revenue to Meta, as a result they're hoping to make up the shortfall by charging users for an ad-free version.
Why would I pay for free ad when I would already get untarget ones ?
