Meta removes language that raised scraping and AI training concerns

Meta recently updated its Terms of Service with aggressive language regarding web scraping and AI training, causing an immediate backlash from creators and privacy advocates. The company has since removed the controversial phrasing, claiming it was a clarification error and that their actual data harvesting practices haven't changed. This highlights the ongoing tension between Big Tech's hunger for training data and public demand for digital sovereignty.
