evidence: In late May and early June 2024, a disclaimer was spread on social media, allegedly preventing Meta from using users' content for training its Artificial Intelligence (AI) models. This copypasta, a copied-and-pasted text often used to pass along an alleged warning of some sort, went viral in the light of European Facebook and Instagram users receiving a notification about a privacy policy update that would give Meta permission to use their posts to train its AIs. [...] I own the copyright to all images and posts submitted to my Instagram profile and therefore DO NOT consent to Meta or other companies using them to train generative Al platforms. This includes all FUTURE and PAST posts/stories on my profile. #noaiart #illustration #artistsoninstagram "No further posts from me until meta decides to stop using all our posts to train their ai. If you are unaware please look into the situation. So long for now!," another Instagram user wrote. The copypasta was even shared by a renowned tennis player, Rafael Nadal. "More than 250 thousand users shared a message on their IG stories refusing to use their posts to train Meta's AI," the fact-checking organization Maldita reported. [...] "Meta doesn't have an 'opt-out feature' for users who don't want the company to use their content for its AI training," Meta's spokesperson confirmed to WCNC VERIFY.
