由于数据共享和垄断担忧，Meta 暂停了土耳其的线程

Meta 将于 4 月 29 日起在土耳其停止使用其消息应用程序 Threads。土耳其竞争管理局 (TCA) 发布禁令，禁止与 Instagram 自动共享数据，声称这种做法违反了竞争法，并给 Meta 带来了不公平的优势。 Meta 选择撤回 Threads，而不是改变其与 Instagram 的集成，并鼓励用户停用或删除其帐户。该决定是在土耳其持续进行监管审查之后作出的，其中包括 2022 年因涉嫌数据共享违规行为而处以的罚款。

Meta Shuts Down Threads in Turkey Amid Data-Sharing Backlash and Competition Concerns

由于数据共享的强烈反对和竞争担忧，Meta 关闭了土耳其的线程

ISTANBUL, Turkey - Meta has pulled the plug on its Threads app in Turkey, bowing to a court injunction that halted the automatic data-sharing between Threads and Instagram, raising concerns about dominant market practices and user privacy.

土耳其伊斯坦布尔 - Meta 已在土耳其停止了 Threads 应用程序，屈服于法庭禁令，该禁令停止了 Threads 和 Instagram 之间的自动数据共享，引发了人们对主导市场行为和用户隐私的担忧。

The Turkish Competition Authority (TCA), the nation's antitrust watchdog, had issued an interim injunction against Meta alleging that the linking of Threads and Instagram without user consent "will lead to irreparable harms." The TCA also accused Meta of "abusing its dominant position" in the industry by implementing such a practice, suggesting that the linking's primary purpose was to bolster the company's "market power."

土耳其竞争管理局 (TCA) 作为国家反垄断监管机构，已对 Meta 发出临时禁令，声称未经用户同意链接 Threads 和 Instagram“将导致无法弥补的损害”。 TCA 还指责 Meta 通过实施此类做法“滥用其在行业中的主导地位”，并暗示该链接的主要目的是增强该公司的“市场力量”。

Rather than altering the integration between the two platforms within the Turkish market, Meta has opted to shut down Threads altogether. The company has labeled this a temporary measure while it challenges the injunction, but no timeline for an appeal has been provided. In the interim, Meta has advised its Turkish users to either deactivate their accounts or delete them entirely. Those who choose to deactivate will have their posts and interactions restored "if Threads returns" to the country.

Meta 没有改变土耳其市场内两个平台之间的集成，而是选择完全关闭 Threads。该公司在对该禁令提出质疑时已将此标记为临时措施，但未提供上诉时间表。在此期间，Meta 建议土耳其用户停用其帐户或完全删除它们。那些选择停用的人“如果 Threads 返回”该国，他们的帖子和互动将恢复。

Meta's automatic data-sharing practices between Threads and Instagram have faced scrutiny not only from Turkish regulators but also from privacy advocates and users worldwide. The platforms were initially so tightly integrated that users could not delete a Threads account without also deleting their Instagram account, a practice that Meta eventually patched.

Meta 在 Threads 和 Instagram 之间的自动数据共享做法不仅面临土耳其监管机构的审查，还面临全球隐私倡导者和用户的审查。这些平台最初集成得非常紧密，以至于用户无法在不删除 Instagram 帐户的情况下删除 Threads 帐户，Meta 最终修复了这种做法。

Additionally, Meta has been accused of promoting Threads posts on Facebook and Instagram without user consent, a move that prompted widespread backlash and prompted Meta to introduce an opt-out option. These practices led to the TCA's recent injunction.

此外，Meta 还被指控在未经用户同意的情况下在 Facebook 和 Instagram 上推广 Threads 帖子，此举引发了广泛的强烈反对，并促使 Meta 引入了退出选项。这些做法导致了 TCA 最近的禁令。

Meta's troubles in Turkey do not end there. The country has previously fined the company $18.6 million for data-sharing across its apps, alleging that it violated Turkish competition laws. TechCrunch reported that Turkey had also demanded that Meta provide documentation detailing its efforts to cease violating these laws, but the Turkish regulators deemed the explanations insufficient, resulting in additional fines of $160,000 per day.

Meta 在土耳其的麻烦还不止于此。该国此前曾因该公司在其应用程序之间共享数据而对其处以 1860 万美元的罚款，指控其违反了土耳其竞争法。 TechCrunch 报道称，土耳其还要求 Meta 提供文件，详细说明其为停止违反这些法律所做的努力，但土耳其监管机构认为解释不充分，导致每天额外罚款 16 万美元。

The TCA's actions against Meta underscore the global trend of heightened scrutiny towards Big Tech companies, particularly regarding their data-sharing practices. The injunction and the subsequent shutdown of Threads in Turkey serve as a reminder that companies must adhere to competition and privacy regulations to avoid facing sanctions. Meta's ongoing legal battle in Turkey highlights the complexities of navigating regulatory landscapes in different jurisdictions and the potential consequences for failing to comply.

TCA 针对 Meta 的行动突显了全球对大型科技公司加强审查的趋势，特别是在其数据共享实践方面。该禁令以及随后土耳其 Threads 的关闭提醒人们，公司必须遵守竞争和隐私法规，以避免面临制裁。 Meta 在土耳其正在进行的法律斗争凸显了不同司法管辖区监管环境的复杂性以及不遵守规定的潜在后果。
