Meta considers charging for Facebook & Instagram in UK

Facebook and Instagram owner Meta is considering a paid subscription in the UK which would remove adverts from its platforms.

Under the plans, people using the social media sites could be asked to pay for an ad-free experience if they do not want their data to be tracked.

It comes as the company agreed to stop targeting ads at a British woman last week following a protracted legal battle.

Meta already provides ad-free subscriptions for Facebook and Instagram users in the EU, starting from €5.99 (£5) a month.

A spokesperson for the firm said the company was “exploring the option” of offering a similar service in the UK. (BBC)
