I wish you posted this when it happened, I mean the first pop up, I would have told you not to do that, and just delete them because you’re not safe there…
Facebook is like a dangerous neighborhood, or a war zone, you gotta have your screenshot app ready to capture at all times if you’re there, that been said;
I got the message on both Facebook and Instagram to either consent to viewing targeted ads or paying the subscription fee. I did neither, and it soon went away. Since yesterday though, I got it again and have no access to any part of facebook
The Zuck loves this kind of behavior, it’s by design, they give you a pop up to agree to some shit, but they don’t make it mandatory, or they don’t make it seem to be, and a hour, a day, a month later, they lock you off your account ( and data ), with the only option being to provide verification to get access to your stuff, and they’ll make the verification process as painful as possible, and most importantly as humiliating as possible, what? Asking people to hold their real ID next to their face is dystopian to say the least… still even after you do that, they’ll just say : verification failed and no matter what you do, you can’t get access, so your pics and stuff are still there but you don’t own them anymore
so to get this into perspective, you pay us a fee, or you pay with your data ( which then we sell as a service ), if you say no ( like you did ), we take what you have given us so far ( and what we were able to get from you by spying on you ), and we go separate ways
File a GDPR complaint, but first I would suggest to try to contact Meta’s support by mail
support@fb.com or platformcs@support.facebook.com
Edit : many have tried to reach Meta support, it doesn’t seem to be possible…
