PANews reported on June 11 that, according to Bloomberg, Meta Platforms has completed its operational separation from Manus, a Chinese-founded agentic AI service provider, and ceased data sharing between the two companies. This is a key step in its efforts to dismantle the approximately $2 billion Manus acquisition. Sources familiar with the matter said that since the beginning of this month, Meta has prohibited Manus and its employees from accessing Meta's internal data systems, and Meta employees are no longer allowed to use Manus tools in internal projects. This move is seen as establishing a substantial "firewall" between Meta and Manus in the face of regulatory resistance, preparing for the formal termination of the deal.
