A post citing TechCrunch reports that Meta removed wording allowing it to use content from business accounts’ websites to “train” its products after publishers raised AI scraping concerns. Meta says the change does not alter how it uses web crawlers. The new terms take effect October 30, 2026. The News/Media Alliance says the revised terms still do not expressly rule out training.
