Our preliminary concern is that Meta ties its dominant social network Facebook to its online classified ad services called Facebook Marketplace. This means Facebook users have no choice but to have access to Facebook Marketplace.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Furthermore, we are concerned that Meta imposed unfair trading conditions, allowing it to use of data on competing online classified ad services.
