      Wait, surely if the ruling in the article was made at a central EU court, and it pertains to an EU law, then it would supersede the Spanish ruling?

      Edit:

      The commission must finish its investigation by the end of March next year and Meta faces a fine of up to 10% of global turnover – equivalent to $13.5bn (£10.5bn) – if it is deemed to have breached the act.

      Probably?
