Meta filed a lawsuit due to fraudulent advertisements on Facebook and Instagram.

Their action would be just one more in a string of international campaigns launched to make the internet behemoth answerable for advertisements that continue to run even after users have reported issues to the business.

Polish parcel locker firm InPost was founded by Brzoska, who also holds the largest part in the company. Brzoska claimed he informed InPost of the issue at the beginning of July, but the matter was not resolved.

“We want to bring a case against Meta in private. Which jurisdictions we plan to sue Meta in is still up in the air. We’ll make a decision within the next few weeks, Brzoska informed Reuters.

“…we are thinking of every possible scenario, including filing a lawsuit in the US if Europe does nothing,” he continued.

Brzoska stated that he and his spouse would require Meta to cease reaping the benefits of endorsing content that infringes upon their rights, as well as a sizeable donation to a charitable organization that matches the amount of money generated by advertising this kind of misinformation.

Commenting was not possible at this time from Meta.

The Personal Data Protection Office President compelled Meta Platforms Ireland Limited last week to cease displaying deceptive advertisements on Facebook and Instagram in Poland for a period of three months, utilizing actual data and photos of Brzoska and his spouse.

Phase II of CPEC: China-Pakistan Partnership Enters a New Era

The cornerstone of economic cooperation between the two brothers and all-weather friends is still the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, the initiative’s flagship project.

In contrast to reports of a slowdown, recent events indicate a renewed vigour and strategic emphasis on pushing the second phase of CPEC, known as CPEC Phase-2, according to the Ministry of Planning, Development, and Special Initiatives.

According to the statement, this crucial stage seeks to reshape the foundation of bilateral ties via increased cooperation, cutting-edge technology transfer, and revolutionary socioeconomic initiatives.

Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal is leading Pakistan’s participation in a number of high-profile gatherings in China, such as the 3rd Forum on China-Indian Ocean Region Development Cooperation in Kunming and the High-Level Seminar on CPEC-2 in Beijing.

His involvement demonstrates Pakistan’s commitment to reviving CPEC, resolving outstanding concerns, and developing a strong phase-2 roadmap that considers both countries’ long-term prosperity.

At the core of these interactions is China’s steadfast determination to turn CPEC into a strategic alliance that promotes development, progress, and connectivity.

Instead of being marginalised, CPEC is developing into a multifaceted framework with five main thematic corridors: the Opening-Up/Regional Connectivity Corridor, the Innovation Corridor, the Green Corridor, the Growth Corridor, and the Livelihood-Enhancing Corridor.

With the help of projects like these, the two countries will fortify their partnership, and CPEC phase-2 will become a model of global economic integration and collaboration that benefits not just China and Pakistan but the entire region.
