📱 Meta eyes predictions amid platform scrutiny

Meta is reportedly exploring prediction products, according to The New York Times, a move that could tap into Facebook and Instagram’s vast scale. With around 3 billion users each and an estimated 700 million following sports accounts, the commercial logic is clear 📊⚽ But the timing raises questions. Meta already faces criticism over illegal gambling promotions and the spread of AI-driven content on its platforms, as noted by SBC News. For iGaming, this could signal a powerful new mainstream traffic channel — but one likely to arrive under intense regulatory and reputational pressure ⚖️👀
