A technology campaigner is suing Facebook’s parent company Meta in the High Court in London over the social media giant’s refusal to let users opt out of user profiling data it uses to sell adverts.

Tanya O’Carroll, 35, says she believes her legal challenge could lead to a landmark change to the rights of social media users.
