Meta can use web scrapers to crawl and collect content from websites “associated with” business accounts on its platforms, according to its new commercial terms of use.

Not valid here (means, it does not really give them that permission), and they could get sued if they used such t&c here.

    They seem to not mind being sued. For them it's just a fee that they calculate into their expenses

    Oh, I didn't mean it because of money, but the court could specifically order them to not use such clauses in T&Cs anymore.

    (And then, in case of disrespecting court orders, that would hurt them financially so much that they'd think more than twice)
