A German consumer protection group is calling on Meta to halt its AI training plans in the EU.
All public posts and user interactions are set to feed Meta AI starting from May 27, 2025, with EU users needing to actively opt out.
Privacy advocates express concerns over the legality of Meta's AI training under GDPR, questioning the use of personal data for training without explicit consent.
Other European consumer groups and privacy authorities might take action against Meta AI as Austrian privacy advocacy group noyb raises compliance issues with EU data protection laws.
