Brussels, Belgium, Nov 14, 2024 (AFP) 

The European Commission fined online giant Meta almost 800 million euros on Thursday for breaching antitrust rules by giving Facebook users automatic access to the social network's Marketplace classified ads service.

The commission also found the US tech titan abused its dominant position by imposing unfair trading conditions on other online classified ad providers, imposing a 798-million-euro (840-mn-dollar) fine that Meta immediately vowed to appeal.
