Meta quickly changed their brand new commercial terms after the news of their plans to "train" on data broke and were covered by major publications!

Seems they haven't heard of the web archive yet: http://web.archive.org/web/20261016114851/https://www.facebook.com/legal/commercial_terms_preview

The word "train" disappeared within a day of the #AI training speculations.

Screenshot of 2 versions of a paragraph of the new commercial terms for Meta services. The word train is encircled in red in the old version and is missing in the new version.
