Threads will not launch in Europe due to privacy concerns
The extensive use and collection of personal data on the new Meta platform has already set off alarm bells in some markets, such as the European Union, where the app will not be available at launch due to regulations in this region.
According to a Bloomberg report, the company behind the development will wait to comply to a greater extent with the Digital Markets Law, a new legislation that governs large technology companies regarding their power in the market and the way in which they Get information from users.
Although the app is already ready to be pre-downloaded in more than 100 nations, in some EU countries, such as Germany, Spain, Italy, France, Ireland and Belgium, it was not available in the app store.
“Meta has informed us that it has no plans to implement the service in the EU at this time,” Graham Doyle, deputy commissioner of the Irish Data Protection Commission, told the US outlet.
It should be remembered that Meta is one of the most monitored companies in the region, in accordance with the rules of the Digital Markets Law, which has the ability to subject companies to stricter reviews on how they process user data.
In fact, under this legislation, companies are prohibited from collecting personal data from users through their platforms and using or combining it to take advantage of it, something that regulators suspect with this new social network.
