> The individual had used the "Sign in with Facebook" option on the EU login webpage to register for a conference. The court, which hears actions taken against EU institutions, found that this transfer of the user's IP address to Meta Platforms in the U.S. violated EU data protection rules.

Which means he already had a Facebook account, so this is only about his IP being given to Meta one time. 400€ per case for this violation seems pretty reasonable.

Or... he didn't even login and the widget already was logging the IP when he opened the page? Either way I agree though.

You think 400 euro per person is small then you wont have problem when EU fines twatter, fb and apple 400 euro per every user rights violated, right?

I sure won't, lol

Hey I mean at least they self regulate at all.
