Threads terms: broader sharing with third-party services, no removal of content from them, Facebook login added
The updated terms state that Meta shares your content, information and interactions with third-party services connected via the Protocol, and that you are directing Meta to deliver your information to services it doesn't control. Meta also now says it cannot remove or delete Threads content from third-party services or servers. Facebook accounts can now be used to sign in, and the deletion wording now refers to Threads accounts rather than profiles or Instagram accounts.

- Meta states it cannot remove or delete your Threads content from third-party services or servers
Won back
- Option to sign up and log in with a Facebook account
