Meta Exempts Italy And Brazil From LLM Ban

Meta confirmed that the third-party LLM ban on WhatsApp, announced last October and taking effect this month, will not apply to users in Italy and Brazil. Italy's competition authority (AGCM) and Brazil's CADE issued orders and opened inquiries, citing potential anticompetitive harm and prompting Meta to exempt those country codes. The European Commission investigation could extend the exemption beyond Italy and Brazil.
Scoring Rationale
Regulatory-driven reversal with broad industry impact, limited novelty because Meta announced the ban earlier and investigations continue.
