A) Copyright laws exist for a reason, even big tech should respect them (considering their utter disregard for anything but money, well...) B) Especially Meta knows aleeady too much about everyone, now they can add AI trained on all of that (but what could possibly go wrong with that, right? C) I don't want AI to be trained on my stuff, to the point I don't share anything publicly anymore and only use encrypted clouds for back-up (and not even sure I'll do so any longer)

By the way, not everything is about money. Convincing people it is, is even a better trick than the devil convincing people he doesn't exist (that is assuming one believes in such things, and then considers the devil to be evil instead of the people ending up in hell, but I digress).

You don't have a copyright claim against Meta posts you made on FB and Instagram, though.

That depends on tge terms of service and the jurisdiction you are based in. And whether or not you want to go to court over it or not. IANAL, but I am fairly certain terms of service do not trump national copyright laws. At max, you might forgoe some usage rights, copyright will stay with you (at least were I live, as you cannot sell copyright, only usage rights if I understood, and remember, the finer points of our laws aroubd that stuff correctly).

That bog tech gets away with, is not necessarily because it is legal, but rather that people don't care, law makers only start to care and even if people would care, it is nigh impossible to successfully litigate.

None of the above is written in stone, nor should it stop us from doing something about it.
