Original Note:
This debacle started with a page resembling the "Funko Fusion" dev page https://x.com/OriginalFunko/status/1866255848366039468 This normally results in a DMCA takedown request, which only takes down offending content. https://rmwarnerlaw.com/blog/what-does-a-dmca-takedown-mean/ itch.io states the site went down due to false "phishing/fraud" claims. https://x.com/itchio/status/1866017758040993829 THOSE claims get sites taken down. https://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/us/security/news/cybercrime-and-digital-threats/infosec-guide-taking-down-fraudulent-domains
