Italy's antitrust authority on
Friday started a procedure against Facebook for failing to
comply with recommendations filed by the authority on November
29, 2018 over deceptive information on data use.
The watchdog said in a statement that it established that
Facebook failed to give adequate information about the
collection and commercial use of data when users registered on
the social network.
The authority said the lack of information persists and
Facebook has not published a statement to rectify the situation.
The antitrust's procedure against Facebook could lead to a
fine of up to five million euros.
