• May 5, 2026 v1 low
  Meta updated its Terms of Service on May 5, 2026, making 102 revisions across the document. The changes are predominantly editorial and stylistic, including British English spelling conventions (personalised instead of personalized, organisations instead of organizations), minor punctuation adjustments (removing commas before conjunctions), and grammatical refinements (changing 'the kind of audience they want' to 'the kind of audience that they want'). The effective date was reformatted from 'January 1, 2025' to '1 January 2025'. No material changes to consumer rights, data practices, advertising mechanisms, or service availability were introduced.

• April 21, 2026 v1 high
  Meta revised its dispute resolution and liability terms on April 21, 2026. Previously, Meta submitted to jurisdiction in California courts for all disputes, but the updated terms now allow consumers to sue in their home country's courts if they are consumers or if required by law, while Meta reserves the right to sue consumers exclusively in California. Meta also added explicit advance notice requirements (30 days) for term changes and narrowed its liability disclaimer to apply only to the extent permitted by law.

• April 19, 2026 v1 low
  Meta restructured and expanded its Meta Terms of Service on April 19, 2026, adding 174 sentences of new content while modifying one existing sentence. The updated document introduces a formal table of contents and explicitly establishes the scope of Meta's product portfolio (Facebook, Messenger, and other Meta Products), the governance structure (agreement between user and Meta Platforms, Inc.), and clarifies that separate terms apply to certain products like Instagram. This change provides clearer organizational structure and explicit delineation of which products are covered under these terms versus subject to separate agreements.
