Meta banned from using press content to train AI

Brazilian justice has prohibited Meta from collecting content from media linked to three press associations for AI training. This precautionary measure follows complaints from these associations about Meta's demand for free content to continue using its platforms. The judge ruled that forcing media to provide their creative assets for free constitutes an abuse of rights. Meta faces a daily fine of one million reais for non-compliance until a final decision is made. This ruling is seen as a significant step against economic power abuse, amid ongoing criticisms of Meta's influence during Brazil's presidential campaign.
