Facebook Australia terms get British spelling and a notice of updated Terms from 20 January 2027

Fresh · under two weeks

Nearly all changes are spelling and wording tweaks (personalized to personalised, license to licence, trash to bin). The one substantive addition is a banner saying the Terms will be updated on 20 January 2027 and that continued use after that date means accepting them. The text of the new Terms is not shown in this diff.

Taken from you

  • Continued use after 20 January 2027 will count as agreeing to the updated Terms

Won back

  • Advance notice (about two and a half months) of an upcoming Terms update
