Meta (Facebook / Instagram) vs TikTok

On what the policies say, there's nothing between them. Both are graded D.

Grades read the plan most people are on. Each company's full entry has every plan, every clause and the archived copy it was read from.

Meta (Facebook / Instagram)

Meta's UK policy names developing and improving AI technology as a purpose and public posts as its input. The way out is an objection form on Meta's own AI page, not in the policy.
