Meta Updates Commercial Terms to Allow AI Training on Linked Business Websites Starting October 30

Meta is updating its commercial terms of service, effective October 30, to permit the company to train its AI models on content from business websites linked to Meta platforms, not just content posted directly on its platforms. The updated terms authorize Meta to use automated software like web scrapers to access, index, and analyze domains tied to business products or services, with no opt-out option for business accounts.
