背景介绍：

当我们注册服务时（比如社交网络、在线购物或推广邮件），之前都是服务商提前在很长的一段注册文字里面说：你们同意我们收集你们的数据吧，我们一般都看不到这个问题。然后服务商会提前帮我们勾上同意。而现在欧盟要求这个框不能你们服务商提前勾，要用户自己勾。

现在微信都有欧盟条例！

思考题：

According the text, Facebook and the UK government are under the regulation of European Union.

词汇：

under the regulation of sth: 受到…的管制

文章认为，脸书和英国政府受到欧盟的管制。

原文说了他们预计到欧盟会出台一项规定就开始做出了行动，说明他们确实会受到欧盟的管制的。所以这个说法是对的。
