The regulator identified five breaches of its information rules after the US technology giant provided inaccurate and incomplete responses to requests for data on its WhatsApp business services, according to a Thursday release. Ofcom reduced the penalty by 25% from 600,000 pounds after Meta admitted liability and agreed to settle. The company is required to pay the fine within two months of the enforcement notice.
