Is there a reason as to why this is "on Facebook and Instagram" and not just a general ban on personalised advertising? Is there something specific that Meta does that others don't?

1. Regulators can't do sweeping statements, so it's individual assessments (that can inform "similar" cases).

2. Facebook and Instagram are household names, so the media picks up on that.

3. The DPA/Meta situation is going on for a couple of years by now, with rather interesting statements at times (e.g. Meta thinking aloud about ceasing operation in the EU)
