Ofcom dismissed reports that the UK regulator had imposed a £450,000 fine on Meta. The figure actually comes from a £520,000 penalty imposed on 4chan, of which £450,000 related to child protection failures. Meta nevertheless remains in conflict with Ofcom before the High Court over the use of global turnover, rather than UK-generated revenue, to calculate fees. The court held a hearing on October 13 and 14, 2026, with a judgment expected in late October. Ofcom is also investigating Meta’s launch of Instagram Instants and whether the company properly assessed the risks before releasing the feature.
