Context
In Brussels, the European Union is demanding design changes from Meta's Facebook and Instagram over features it links to excessive or compulsive use. The move reaches users in Spain, Italy, France, and elsewhere in the EU, while placing Meta's platform design practices under regulatory pressure.
Requiring changes could prioritize user protection and healthier digital habits over the company's autonomy to shape its services. EU official Henna Virkkunen said the services need to implement design changes.
