Brazil’s AGU gives Meta 48 hours to remove unauthorised gambling ads

Enforcement & compliance

Brazil’s Office of the Attorney General of the Union issued Meta an extrajudicial notice demanding removal of advertisements for unauthorised online betting and gambling services within 48 hours. The AGU said a review found hundreds of active ads from profiles that did not meet Brazilian requirements and also demanded that Meta stop promoting content linked to unauthorised providers.

The demand puts Meta under a 48-hour deadline to remove ads for gambling services that lack Brazilian authorisation.
