Word on the street: Meta might be heading into hot water with EU regulators. Sources suggest the tech giant's rolling out AI features across WhatsApp, and Brussels isn't exactly thrilled about it. An antitrust investigation could be brewing.
This isn't just another regulatory slap on the wrist. We're talking about how one of the world's biggest messaging platforms handles AI — and whether that crosses any competition lines. With billions of users relying on WhatsApp daily, any probe into Meta's AI strategy could ripple through the entire tech landscape.
The EU's been tightening its grip on Big Tech lately, and this looks like another chapter in that ongoing saga. If the investigation moves forward, expect some serious scrutiny on how Meta's leveraging AI technology within its encrypted messaging ecosystem. Privacy advocates and competition watchdogs are likely already sharpening their pencils.

Wait, is Meta about to get hammered by the EU again? This time AI is taking the blame, huh?

The EU just won't let up on Meta. WhatsApp adding AI features is enough to get them nailed—how are other big companies supposed to survive?
