Legal experts warn Meta's new terms still grant broad scraping permissions

Legal experts are warning that Meta's updated terms of service still allow for broad web scraping permissions, despite the company making changes to its language. The changes were made in response to a lawsuit from a lawsuit from a web scraping company, and the updated terms were intended to address concerns about the breadth of the permissions. However, experts say the language used in the updated terms is still too broad and could allow for scraping of user data and content. One expert stated that the updated terms are 'still a Trojan horse for scraping,' and another noted that the language is 'still too vague.'
