Last year, Meta settled a case that showed we have the right to opt out of profiling for targeted advertising under UK data protection law.
The UK Information Commissioner's Office rubber stamped the consent or pay model, even though there's no option to receive ads that doesn't involve harvesting our personal data.

Under UK data protection law, consent must be freely given.
Making your right to opt out of surveillance advertising a subscription service fails that test.
Meta can still make billions from advertising without processing our personal data, such as by contextual advertising.

Yes. Use adblocker, period!
But better #exit Meta at all.
No more trouble at all.
