[Global Times Comprehensive Report] Due to the improper processing of children's privacy data, the picture sharing platform Instagram was fined 405 million euros (about 2.79 billion yuan) of the Irish data privacy regulatory agency.
According to British Reuters report on the 5th, a spokesman for the Irish Data Protection Commission said that since 2020, the agency has conducted a survey for children with children aged 13 to 17 on Instagram and found that these children's users have been allowed to operate an enterprise account. This will cause their phone numbers and email addresses to be made public. The investigation ruling draft has been completed in December last year and shared with other EU regulatory agencies under the "one -stop" system of large multinational companies in the European Union. The spokesman for the committee said: "We passed the final decision last Friday, and it did include a fine of 405 million euros." He said that all the details of the decision will be announced next week. But Instagram's parent company Meta did not agree with this decision. The company's spokesman said in an email statement that they were carefully reviewing the decision and plans to appeal the fine. He wrote that Instagram updated and released new features a year ago to ensure the safety of young people and the privacy of information. (Ding Yazang)
