AI-assisted summary

Meta’s updated business terms had included language allowing it to use content from websites associated with business accounts to train its products. A legal expert said this could allow Meta to scrape publishers’ websites to train AI. Meta denied expanding its crawling practices. The disputed clause has reportedly been removed, and the revised terms limit crawling and data collection to advertising and business products.

感谢IT之家网友 愚公骑马、华南吴彦祖 的线索投递!

IT之家 10 月 18 日消息,Meta 最近更新了其商业服务条款,声明其有权“使用来自 [企业账户] 域名、网页或 URL 的任何内容,以提供、开发、改进、研究、训练并维护”Meta 产品及服务的完整性。

IT之家注意到,接受 Nieman Lab 采访的法律专家指出,这是一项“引人注目的条款”,它可能赋予 Meta 抓取任何拥有 Meta 企业账户的内容发布商网站、并利用相关内容训练其人工智能模型的权限。

不过,Meta 发言人坚称,更新后的条款并不意味着 Meta 抓取网络的方式发生了改变。据 The Verge 报道,目前该条款已被正式删除。

Meta 在一份声明中表示:“我们听取了各方的反馈,并特此澄清:本次更新是对既有广告条款的“合并整合”,而非扩大爬虫行为;修改后的条款现已明确限定爬虫与收集数据仅用于“广告和商业产品”,并重申站长仍可通过 robots.txt 控制爬虫权限。”
