TL;DR Summary
Meta Platforms, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, will introduce subscription plans in Europe to allow users to access the platforms without advertisements, in compliance with European Union regulations. The monthly subscription will cost 9.99 euros for web users and 12.99 euros for iOS and Android users.
