Facebook has updated its Terms of Service to enable the removal of contents or restrict user access to avoid lawsuits or regulatory impacts.
In an announcement on Wednesday, Facebook said the update would come into effect on October 1.
Some users of Facebook’s app have received notifications regarding the change.
“Effective October 1, 2020, section 3.2 of our Terms of Service will be updated to include: ‘We also can remove or restrict access to your content, services or information if we determine that doing so is reasonably necessary to avoid or mitigate adverse legal or regulatory impacts to Facebook’,” the notification read.
