Italian regulators have fined social media giant Meta €805m (£670; $887m) for accessing Android users' photos without their specific consent. Italy's Data Protection Authority said Meta did not properly inform about 20 million smartphone users that it had access to their photos and videos via a feature of the Facebook app. It has given Meta 60 days to disable the feature by default and seek users' consent separately. The fine is among the largest an Italian authority has ever imposed on a tech giant. The charge is related to a feature which suggests photos and videos from a user's phone gallery as ideas for posts. Facebook requested access to users' photo galleries through a single app-wide authorisation.
