Starting in November, users in Europe
can subscribe for 9.99 euros a month on
desktop or 12.99 euros on mobile devices.
NBC reports that the new subscription service
comes after the EU's top court told the company it
must obtain consent before showing users ads.

We believe in an ad-supported internet,

But we respect the spirit
and purpose of these evolving European
regulations, and are committed

The strict data privacy laws reportedly restrict
Meta's ability to tailor advertisements
by tracking the online activity of its users.
According to a news release from Meta, users who
choose not to pay are giving their consent to being
shown ads under the new subscription model.
Meta added that users who
subscribe will also not have their personal
information used for tailoring ads.
The option for people to purchase
a subscription for no ads balances
the requirements of European regulators
while giving users choice and allowing
Meta to continue serving all people
in the EU, EEA and Switzerland, Meta statement, via NBC.
Initially, users' ad-free subscriptions will be applied to all
accounts linked to their Accounts Center, which means
the ad-free experience will be available across profiles.
However, after February, an additional 6 euro fee will
be charged on the web and an 8 euro charge
will be applied on mobile for each extra account.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor OrbĂĄn has vowed to block the EUâs new budget plan, refusing to support additional funding for Ukraineâs war effort. OrbĂĄn slammed the proposal as a âbudget of hopelessness,â arguing it would harm European farmers, blackmail Hungary, and waste resources on a conflict Ukraine cannot win. He warned that 20â25% of the EUâs upcoming budget would directly go to Ukraine, leaving Europe weaker and divided. As Brussels pushes for unity, OrbĂĄn insists Ukraine should remain a partner, not a full EU member.

Gazprom hailed it as the worldâs most ambitious gas project, alongside an 8 bcm expansion through existing routes. While pricing details remain unresolved, the deal cements China as Russiaâs top energy buyer after Europe cut reliance, bolstering Moscowâs war economy and stunning the West.

U.S. President Donald Trump has ignited a global trade storm by raising tariffs on Canadian imports to 35%, accusing Ottawa of failing to curb fentanyl and drug flows into America. Prime Minister Mark Carney defended Canadaâs efforts, but Trump claimed negotiations fell short. The new rateâup from 25%âcomes amid broader tariffs hitting dozens of countries.
Despite the USMCA shielding nearly 90% of Canadian exports, key goods like dairy, wood, and leather may still be taxed. Trump spared Mexico for now but warned that other nationsâincluding Taiwan, India, Laos, and even Switzerlandâface harsh levies, some as high as 41%. Critics warn of soaring consumer prices and economic disruption, but the White House insists the tariffs are "rebuilding the greatest economy in history." With global trade talks in limbo and retaliations expected, this marks Trumpâs boldest move yet in his battle to reset world commerce.
