Norway's court upholds data regulator's fine on Meta


OSLO, Sept. 6 (Xinhua) -- A court in Norway has sided with Datatilsynet, the country's data protection authority, affirming the legality of a daily fine imposed on Meta Platforms for invasive behavior-based marketing on Facebook and Instagram.

In a judgment delivered on Wednesday, the Oslo District Court fully endorsed Datatilsynet's action, dismissing Meta's plea for a temporary injunction to halt the fine and stating that there was no cause to undermine the regulator's judgment.
