I'm gonna murder AI, my hate against it is justified... Was testing my EZRecolor Website's itchio links, pages not found, then I read this. iwantmyname, if you read this, please respond to their request and bring their domain back as this is clearly fraudulent. Funko, if you read this, F&%# you

itch.io@itch.io · 2y ago

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
