So, can we use copyrighted music in a IG business account now?

Yes, I know, the quick (and safest) answer is "no". However, I've been observing lately how more and more IG business accounts used copyrighted music from famous artists in their content, so I decided to give it a try myself. I have access to two IG business accounts, one for a client and a private one for testing. I just tried creating a video from within the app, picked the music library and searched for a Taylor Swift song... and there it was, available for me to add. I added the song and posted the video in my test business account, and had no problems.

I clearly remember that as late as a couple of years, ago, if you went to IG's music library from a business account, copyrighted music from "big" artists wouldn't even be there, so what has changed since then? Has IG relaxed their restrictions on copyrighted music? Was there any official announcement that I missed? And if not, why is it that now I can access Taylor Swift and Kanye''s songs from a business account in the app?
