"WHAT TO FIX files DSA complaint over Meta’s monetization enforcement and reporting systems", 21 September 2026

On 16 September 2026, WHAT TO FIX filed a complaint with the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) under the Digital Services Act (DSA), alleging that Meta has failed to diligently enforce its monetization rules and to provide effective ways to escalate potentially illegal monetization.The complaint calls on ACM to investigate Meta for potential breaches of the following DSA provisions:

• Article 14 - Terms and Conditions
• Article 16 - Notice-and-Action Mechanisms
• Article 20 - Internal Complaint-Handling System
• Article 12 - Points of Contact for Recipients of the Service

Insofar as the concerns may reflect systemic weaknesses, the complaint also calls on Digital Services Coordinators to refer the matter to the European Commission for further investigation, in accordance with Article 65(2) of the DSA.

WHAT TO FIX’s complaint documents how:

• Meta either redirected WHAT TO FIX to its standard, and unsuitable, electronic reporting forms; or
• Meta did not respond to WHAT TO FIX’s inquiries...

Comment from META via Article "Meta under fire in Netherlands over alleged DSA breaches" from ICLG, 22 September 2026:

Meta has said that it is committed to complying with its obligations under EU and other relevant sanctions law. Where accounts appear to be run by, or on the behalf of, sanctioned parties, the company emphasises that it will enforce against them in line with applicable sanctions.
