(From the official itch account on Bluesky) 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

(Continuation via Twitter) Also, for transparency, we did take the disputed page down as soon as we got the notice because it’s not worth fighting stuff like that. Regardless, our registrar’s automated system likely kicked to disable the domain since no one read our confirmation of removal

you can’t make this up

    They’re worse LEGO minifigures, without the excuse of being tiny and part of a construction set.

    Ah ah clearly, one more big point,
    They are just exististing to satisfy a bad syndrom, nostalgia,
    They develop to the individuals, nothing more, or its clearly not an intend,
