Not owned by Meta. This company actually had a legal dispute with Meta when they rebranded from Facebook: https://www.the-sun.com/tech/3983498/facebook-meta-name-trademark-battle/

A legal dispute that is evidenced by the confusion between the two already in this thread. Certainly worth fighting.

It's counterproductive to keep the name. How many consumers (like me) are going to see Meta and know anything about it? A very small number.

If I had a business called Trump Motorcycles, I would rename regardless of the history.
