Britain's media regulator, Ofcom, has slapped Meta with a £450,000 fine due to consistent misinformation regarding WhatsApp Business. This penalty ensued after 11 months of erroneous data that contravened five statutory requirements under the communications act. However, Meta's cooperation and acceptance of liability led to a reduced fine. The company is also grappling with separate legal hurdles concerning Ofcom's information requests tied to online safety regulations.
