The Great Shutdown: itch.io Goes Dark After AI Copyright Drama with Funko

A screenshot of a Twitter/X post from itch.io's official account, where they announce their domain was taken down by Funko due to a bogus phishing report generated by Funko's 'Brand Shield' AI software. The post is followed by a reply from itch.io saying 'I hope you're all having a nice Sunday evening', implying the situation is resolved or they're trying to downplay the drama. The interface shows engagement metrics like reposts, quotes, and likes.
