Italy Fines Meta €805 Million Over Unauthorized Access to Android Users' Photos and Videos
2026年11月14日，意大利数据保护机构宣布，因Meta平台公司在未获用户同意或未予告知的情况下访问安卓用户的照片和视频，对其处以8.05亿欧元（8.87亿美元）罚款。根据该机构的声明，Meta通过Facebook应用的一项功能获取了这些数据，该功能会从用户的个人相册中推荐可发布的内容。这笔罚款约占Meta全球营收的0.47%。监管机构要求Meta在60天内默认关闭该功能，并单独征得用户同意。这项启动于2025年的调查排除了相关内容被用于训练人工智能模型的可能性，Meta对此也予以否认。不过，该机构保留对2026年一项在云端处理相册内容的功能进行单独评估的权利。Meta暂未立即对此置评。
On November 14, 2026, Italy's data protection agency announced an €805 million ($887 million) fine against Meta Platforms for accessing Android users' photographs and videos without consent or notification. According to the authority's statement, Meta accessed this data through a Facebook app feature that suggested content from users' personal galleries to post. The fine equals roughly 0.47% of Meta's global revenue. Regulators gave Meta 60 days to disable the feature by default and obtain separate user consent. The investigation, initiated in 2025, excluded potential use of the content to train artificial intelligence models, which Meta denied. However, the agency reserved the right to separately assess a 2026 feature that processes gallery content in the cloud. Meta was not immediately available for comment.
