@EUCommission imposes interim measures on #meta to preserve free access to #WhatsApp for rival #AI assistants
The European Commission has ordered Meta to restore free access to WhatsApp for rival general-purpose AI assistants, and maintain it until the end of the Commission's #antitrust investigation. This will prevent serious and irreparable harm to competition in this growing market by Meta's conduct, which at first sight infringes EU competition rules.
