Wer auf Meta-Plattformen unterwegs ist, schwimmt in einem Sumpf der unterschiedlichsten Interessenlagen. Da ist nicht immer so klar, was von wem kommt und welche Absicht jemand hat.
Dank einer EU-Verordnung müssen sich jetzt wenigstens politische Parteien dort transparenter geben. Meta macht da gleich mehr draus - leider zum Nachteil anderer, die eigentlich Gutes wollen.

🚀 New Trend Report from Open Terms Archive
A few months into the TTPA, we examine how major platforms reacted to new political advertising transparency rules, including widespread restrictions and withdrawals across the EU.
The report highlights the structural limits of current ad-tech systems and what this means for the future of platform governance.

The EU's TTPA regulation transformed political ad transparency from voluntary to mandatory. Major platforms' withdrawal exposes a structural gap: their advertising systems prioritize efficiency over the detailed traceability that democratic oversight demands.

Det stora US-amerikanska företaget Meta har slutat med politiska annonser inom EU. Stoppet berör Facebook, Instagram och Threads. Företaget menar att EU:s nya regelverk om transparens kring politisk reklam som kallas TTPA är svårtolkat och krångligt. De menar att det är omöjligt att uppfylla kraven i det nya regelverket som infördes den 10 oktober.

@teilenswert Vielleicht steckt in dieser Situation auch eine Chance für alle demokratischen Kräfte, sich endlich aus der #BigTech-Falle zu befreien und unsere öffentliche Kommunikation auf neue, unabhängige Beine zu stellen.

Essential thread from Kay Jebelli re: Google/Meta dropping Political Advertising in the EU, aghast civil society groups demanding they “continue, and be regulated”
Discussing a post by Eliza Gkritsi, Kay describes at length the fact that platforms, facing vague but severely punitive regulation for [what they do] are increasingly heeding the old computing adage “don’t do that, then!” and shrugging off the burden.
It’s a lesson highly relevant to Chat Control, Ofcom, and to UK Home Office TCNs
Apparently some people feel that they are entitled to free service.
it’s an example of how industry concerns about the workability of regulation are often shot down, but ultimately prove true …
After participating in the consultation process and not getting very far, Google shared concerns publicly on how some of the TTPA drafting left too much uncertainty and unknowns for easy compliance, especially given the massive penalties for non-compliance …
These concerns weren’t addressed, so already last year Google announced that they were pulling all kinds of “political ads” from Europe (an overbroad category given the uncertainty in the law’s definitions …
Meta followed suit, as the other big digital advertising platform, also highlighting the uncertainty and lack of necessary legal guidance from enforcers (complicated here by the multiplicity of national issues) …
Predictably, European lawmakers are now raising concerns, that the law that was said to be unworkable, is actually unworkable, and that the companies aren’t able to offer their services in Europe anymore, as they had previously predicted and warned. (continues)
