This overstates both the size and the effect of the Meta–Scale deal.

• On June 12, 2025, Wilson Sonsini, counsel on the transaction, described it as a $14.35 billion investment from Meta in Scale AI, not $20 billion. The same writeup says Meta would hold only a minority of Scale's outstanding equity.
• Scale itself said after the deal that it "remains an independent company" and is "not integrating our business operations with Meta." Scale also said Meta would not get access to Scale's internal systems or other customers' confidential information.
• Scale later reported that, despite media reporting following the Meta deal, its data business performed best in the second half of 2025 and is now profitable.

So the claim is inaccurate in two concrete ways: the amount was roughly $14.35B, not $20B, and available evidence does not show Scale was "KO[ed]" as a supplier; Scale publicly said it stayed independent and continued operating and growing after the Meta investment.
