Starting in November, users in Europe
can subscribe for 9.99 euros a month on
desktop or 12.99 euros on mobile devices.

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.

U.S. President Donald Trump has declared he will only accept the total dismantlement of Iran’s nuclear program. Speaking on NBC’s Meet the Press, Trump dismissed the need for Iran’s civilian nuclear power, citing its vast oil reserves. This comes after talks with Iran were indefinitely postponed, amid rising tensions in the Middle East. Trump warned that a nuclear Iran could lead to global destruction. Meanwhile, Iran continues to deny pursuing weapons and accuses the U.S. of provocation, while Israel threatens retaliation over a Houthi missile strike.
