The government parties do. That's who they're targeting with this 'news'.
Any government party seen bending to the metatwats can fuck off too.
But unfortunately they really want the exposure to show the kids how hip they are. -

You mean citing.

Let's be honest: We are talking about several billions of dollars of ad revenue over the years. Meta has the resources to work within those rules and earn billions. If they do not want to do that, there is something really shady going on.

A fantastic example of why regulation can be good and is often necessary. You can‘t leave tech corporations or even most corporations on their own accord. They need a short leash or they‘re going to tear humanity apart.

The regulations impose additional requirements for a reason - because political advertising can be extremely dangerous. If it's a question of no political advertising or opaque, microtargeted political advertising that can't be investigated later, then it's an easy choice.

Or maybe long term plan: let the political parties know if they want back in, to revise their policies in a more pro-meta stance?

Exactly!
"So, sorry <insert Super PAC here> we'd love to help you astroturf the EU elections, but those pesky laws are stopping us."

Oh shit, really?
That's really a pity that luckily for me I'm no longer giving an absolute metric fuck about meta and any of its shit content or its servi..spywares since 10 years at least already, and also I haven't the slightest idea of changing my plans in that regard.
