Comment on Funko, BrandShield speak out about itch.io takedown
mosiacmango@lemm.ee 1 week agoThey didnt issue a DMCA takedown request, which has a legslly prescribed back and forth
They ijstead told the registar itch.io was committing phishing/fraud crimes. The registar clearly knee jerked on being told the domain was illegal, but it was Funko and their vendor Brandshield that lied about that in the first place.

Yes, I didn’t know about the fraud allegation when I posted. That definitely shouldn’t have happened. Funko should’ve known better than to pull shit like that and it’ll be interesting to see if Itch sues over this.
My point about AI tools remains, though.
