Meta Indefinitely Delays Implementation of Controversial New Business Terms
Meta has announced an indefinite delay to its new business terms, which were scheduled to take effect on November 20, 2026. The proposed updates had faced significant scrutiny from publishers and media organizations due to language that appeared to grant the company broad permissions to use scraped content for training its artificial intelligence models. Despite previous attempts to refine the language of these terms, the backlash regarding intellectual property rights and AI data scraping led Meta to postpone the rollout. This decision follows a period of uncertainty after the company had already pushed back the initial implementation date.
