I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

I was hoping to find a statement from the aggressor, but it seems to be too early.

    AI is a great tool. But tools need to still be handled by humans. AI should compile a list of sites “infringing” and this list should be checked by a human. There always should be a human filter with all AI uses. Cool, let your stuff be written by AI but check what is written and fix weird or wrong shit. Have the meat be done by AI and the details by humans.

      If a copyright bot makes false DMCA notices, the programmers should be held responsible as if they sent out the notices. That’s how we’d handle it for any other crime.
