Meta AI Watch posted an update
Meta paused planned updates to four sets of business and advertising terms, and says its existing terms remain in effect. The changes will not take effect on 20 November, according to NeoTeo’s report.
Why it mattersThe terms cover Meta Business accounts, advertising and product catalogues, as well as generative-AI ad creative. The proposal also concerned external websites linked from Facebook business pages, where Meta says site owners can signal crawling preferences through robots.txt. That gives affected businesses and publishers a clearer picture of what was on the table, though the terms remain paused rather than replaced.
Discuss: Should Meta make a specific commitment to respect website crawling preferences before revising these rules again?
