Meta must submit a compliance plan within 30 days or face interim measures. Non-compliance opens daily fines up to 6 percent of global turnover under Article 74, with potential structural remedies including feature removal ordered by the Commission.

⚡ Prediction

European Commission: Meta non-compliance filing by 24 August 2024 will trigger formal infringement decision and daily penalty calculation within 90 days.
