Legal experts reportedly remain concerned that Meta retains broad content-collection rights despite adjusting training-related language in its business terms. The summary reviewed identifies service-development wording and an October 30 effective date as key issues. A separately reviewed News/Media Alliance statement criticizes the earlier terms for offering businesses no refusal option beyond discontinuing service use. These are stakeholder arguments, not a judgment establishing illegality. Access restrictions prevented direct review of the cited original reporting, so no conclusion based on a complete comparison of the old and revised provisions can be drawn.
