24 Jun 2026 Meta Platforms Ireland LimitedMeta: infringement of the P2B Regulation after fashion retailer’s Facebook page was hacked DenmarkPlatform obligations Order

After the Facebook page of the Danish fashion retailer Clothing By Ros ApS was hacked in 2023, Meta failed to respond appropriately for almost two years, gave no reasons for the de facto suspension and offered no effective complaint-handling procedure. The Konkurrencerådet (Danish Competition Council) found infringements of the P2B Regulation and ordered Meta to comply with the rules on statements of reasons and complaint handling in future.

What organisations can take from it

Platform operators must give reasons for suspending business users and handle complaints promptly – silence counts as a decision in its own right.
