- France's competition authority on Wednesday ordered Meta Platforms META.O to resume negotiations with French media groups over remuneration for publishing content, following a complaint by the publishers after previous talks collapsed.

The authority, which said Meta should have a payment plan in place within 15 days, found the practices employed by Meta were likely to constitute an abuse of its dominant position.
