So I guess if I'm a contractor and doing a job for Meta, not only can I completely fail and they still pay me but if I do something illegal it's on them for hiring me, right??

Yeah I don't know what the solution is but something is wrong here. Maybe refund mistakes or take responsibility.

The difference between us and agents, paradoxically, is that the agents do not have any agency.

There's no paradox, there never were agents to begin with. Those are programs. It's same old software. If you sell me a software to do X and you fail to deliver, it's on you.

Meta says: "We have more lawyers and lobbyists than you!"

Not to worry. The customer can shrug and say “rogue agents took unaligned actions”, and they too will be absolved of liability.

Right?

Not a legal expert, but that sounds like a trojan horse. Does this mean if a bad actor were to use Meta's model, that if they bypass the safegaurds that they get off scot-free?
