What this means for you

The updated policy no longer includes language describing the availability of a 24/7 Meta AI support assistant for resolving account, privacy, and login issues. Previously, the policy stated that users could access instant help anytime through this assistant. The removal of this language means the policy no longer commits to providing round-the-clock AI-powered support for these specific account-related problems. Users can no longer reference this policy language as evidence of a support availability guarantee.
