Facebook has a giant, Europe-sized legal problem

Europe continues to be a giant pain in Facebook's app. 

Germany and France this week both hammered Facebook for its data practices, though in different ways. 

Germany's competition regulator declared on Monday that Facebook is using its dominance in the personal data market to squelch competition and took issue with Facebook's tracking of users outside of its social network.

On Tuesday, France's privacy regulator took issue with an entirely different part of Facebook — messaging service WhatsAppFrance threatened to fine Facebook for taking user data from WhatsApp without user consent.
