At least temporarily, the querelle between Meta and SIAE, Italy's copyright collecting agency, has come to a happy conclusion. As a result of a transitional agreement signed between the parties, music protected by SIAE will return to Meta's social platforms. As stated in an official note, "SIAE expresses satisfaction with this result, sought and achieved, but it remains committed to protecting the interests of its members, continuing to work tirelessly to reach a definitive and lasting agreement marked by fairness and transparency, as also required by the European Copyright Directive. It is also committed to continuing negotiations in compliance with the decisions and precautionary measures dictated by the Italian Competition Authority".
