Move follows Instagram and Facebook giant's decision to reverse direction in EU after protests
A UK data rights campaign group has launched a complaint with the data law regulator against Meta’s change of privacy policy which allows it to scrape user data to develop AI models.
The complaint follows a similar protest in the European Union under the General Data Protection Regulation, which resulted in the social media biz agreeing to pause plans to train AI models on EU users' Facebook and Instagram users' posts. The ORG pointed out there had been no official change to the Meta privacy policy to make the ending of data processing for the development of Meta's"AI technologies" legally binding in the UK. It has therefore raised a formal regulatory complaint with the nation’s data protection regulator, the Information Commissioner’s Office .
