Except the EU has already told them fuck off, or they will shut down their EU operations. Did they resolve that?

People based in the EU who use our platforms can choose to object to their public data being used for training purposes.

And last in the article it says it works with EU regulators to ensure its legal, basically.

Also, they are only allowed to use post, comments etc from adults.

So yeah, they probably scrape less data in EU. At least what they are telling.

#Meta says it will resume AI training with public content from European users!

Meta said it will start notifying users in the EU about the training, and will include a link to a form where they can object at any time. “We’ll honour all objection forms,” the company said. No need to wait, it is possible to opt out now, but I think you need to do it on each platform.

How Meta uses information for generative AI models and features

You can submit an objection request through your Facebook, Instagram or Meta account. Your objection will be applied to the account that you’re logged in to and any accounts that you’ve added to the same Accounts Centre.

Yet to find a link for threads, and they say they don’t scrape private messages, so no need for messenger?

Threads maybe be covered by Instagram?

Horseshit, They've always just spied on us and paid the fine. Fuck Cuckerberg and his malware ridden profiling apps.
