The European Commission has opened three major Digital Services Act investigations against Meta since late 2024 while levying over EUR 2.2 billion in fines across GDPR, competition, and Digital Markets Act violations — yet Meta's European revenue continues to grow at 39% year-over-year, raising questions about whether financial penalties alone can compel compliance.
