I suppose it's not even legal since it's highly misleading but they don't care and do it until costs (penalties) catch up to them.

I also get spam from them without even having an account - but it was taken over from oculus illegally and never agreed to. They still did it.

The problem is that the penalties are just way to low. They really need to be in the double digit billions to work.

I agree, but the EU penalties are percentages oriented on business numbers, at least that amounts to something whenever it applies.

Too many corporations, those are just the cost of doing business.

I note they make an exemption for the UK. Now, while the UK is no longer part of the EU we do have a version of the GDPR which includes the right of erasure and follows similar rules to the EU GDPR. And is pretty close to "The right to be forgotten". The ICO site about it even references that phrase.

So, I wonder why they think they get to treat us differently. I suspect I know. There are exemptions they can claim to the right of erasure (and I bet they're similar in the EU GDPR). But here's the difference. The UK ICO is a toothless useless organisation they know very well they can either exploit or ignore.

Oh wow! That’s just next level villainous scheming. Then again, what can you expect from the public enemy number 1. Meta is still the cancer of the internet, so nothing has really changed.
