WhatsApp wins support in EU fine appeal

Mar, 27, 2025 Hi-network.com

WhatsApp has gained support from an adviser to the European Court of Justice in its fight against a higher fine imposed by the EU privacy watchdog.

The Irish Data Protection Authority fined WhatsApp 225 million euros ($242.2 million) in 2021 for privacy breaches.

The fine was increased after the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) intervened.

A lower tribunal had rejected WhatsApp's challenge, saying the company lacked legal standing. However, WhatsApp appealed to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU).

Advocate General Tamara Capeta disagreed with the tribunal, recommending that the case be referred back to the General Court for further review.

The CJEU usually follows the adviser's recommendations, and a final ruling is expected soon. This case could have significant implications for the fine imposed on WhatsApp.
