Brandshield has been deleting and rewriting their non-statement deflecting responsibility repeatedly while hiding all the comments calling out their cascade of BS. Here is their current statement blaming iwantmyname and link to the hidden replies:
> We want to address recent reports surrounding a website takedown.
> BrandShield serves as a trusted partner to many brands. Our AI-driven platform detects potential threats and provides analysis, and in this case, an abuse was identified from an @itchio subdomain.
> We identified and reported the infringement, and requested a takedown of the URL in question – not of the entire http://itch.io http://itch.io domain. The temporary takedown of the website was a decision made by the service providers, not BrandShield.
> BrandShield remains committed to supporting our clients by identifying potential digital threats and infringements. We encourage platforms to implement stronger self-regulation systems that prevent such issues from escalating.

Note: they are non specific about how the "abuse" was submitted to iwantmyname as "fraud and phishing", not "copyright infringement", so they are covering up their fuckup.
- vintagedave 2y agoLove that last part. > We encourage platforms to implement stronger self-regulation systems that prevent such issues from escalating. Clear blame.
- kjs3 2y ago"You as the innocent party should have prevented us from shitting on you. This is really on you.". Like, "if you didn't want to get hit by a car you shouldn't have been walking on the sidewalk". Utter scum.
