Hurrah.
Instagram forces me to make a "choice" between paying a monthly fee, starting at CHF 7.-/month, or to "consent" to my data being "processed for adds".
As long as i do not "choose" my account is bricked. This is due to some law here in Switzerland.
How can they frame this as a choice and talk about consenting?
This might be the end for me with Insta, that i mainly still use to follow certain artist accounts, who only post to that platform.
