Divya Delhi:  After agreeing to stop targeting an activist with ads based on her personal information, Meta is thinking of offering a subscription option for Facebook users in the UK. According to the internet business, Instagram and its social network are "free for British consumers because of personalised advertising." It follows Meta's decision to cease directing advertisements towards human rights advocate Tanya O'Carroll following her complaint against Facebook for collecting personal information.According to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), Meta was "processing Ms. O'Carroll's personal data for direct marketing purposes," the office stated on Saturday.It further stated that under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Ms. O'Carroll had the "absolute right to object to such processing" in relation to profiling for those reasons. The ICO stated that it would "continue to engage with Meta on this issue" and that "organizations must respect people's choices about how their data is used." In resolving my dispute, Meta has consented to cease using my personal information for direct marketing, Ms. O'Carroll posted on LinkedIn. In layman's terms, that implies Facebook will no longer display surveillance advertisements to me.Since it opens the door for the right to object to being used to protest online surveillance advertising, I think this is a win for all UK and EU citizens, not just for me.In addition to publicly stating that they will support other UK people who want to exercise their right to object in the context of internet targeted adverts, I commend the ICO for their logical and moral application of the law in their intervention in my instance.
