If you're a prolific enough gamer,

you might have noticed that itch.io was down a few days ago.

The reason is utter chaos.

Throughout my years, I've seen a lot of different ways that a website can go down.

I've never seen one quite as weird,

dumb, and just worth talking about as this one.

Quickly, from their words, itch.io has been taken down by original Funko

because they used some trash AI-powered brand protection software

that created some bogus phishing report to our registrar who ignored our responses and just disabled the domain.

This isn't that simple.

This is hilarious.

They even called his mom.

Yes, the HIO founder and owner's mom got called because they were so upset about the social media.

This is chaos and we have a lot to talk about.

And I promise you we'll get there right after a quick word from today's sponsor.

Zavala, the best place to deploy anything.

And I mean anything.

They're not joking when they say this.

They came from the WordPress world.

If you've heard of Kinsta, this is them.

They've built a platform to host everything else.

And I mean it.

From here, I can click one button and deploy a Laravel app,

Django app, Vita app, Next app, any of these.

And it's not just the app code.

It's the database too.

It's the CDN with Cloudflare.

All the craziness you need to set up a web app correctly.

It takes multiple info providers to do it right.

Now it doesn't.

It's basically like you set up your AWS perfectly

and you're using Cloudflare for the CDN because their CDNs are the best in the world.

But it actually does all of it for you.

I just click the deploy button.

It's deploying right now.

Cool.

Let's deploy.

If we go to the overview,

we can see all the parts we can see that Cloudflare is in front with DDoS protection.

We could even set it up with CDN

and edge caching with any of the different deployments that we do doesn't have to be next.js.

You can use the cool next features we're used to from Vercel anywhere now with all the fun integrations,

everything from automatic builds on pull requests,

all the fun GitHub automatic deployment and CI stuff,

everything you would need or expect built in.

If even I can spin up a full stack Laravel app that effortlessly,

you're going to have no trouble.

It's a fantastic platform for hosting pretty much anything.

And I've had a lot of fun with it myself.

Thank you, Savala for sponsoring.

Check out today at soydev.link slash Savala.

Thankfully, by the time you're watching this video,

itch.io is again back online, which is very good.

The indie game scene needs itch.

If it fails, a lot of indie game dev goes along with it.

We need itch.io to survive.

These types of things are, to be frank, pathetic.

Also credit to Pirate Software for putting this on my radar.

Absolute chaos.

We need to break this down layer by layer.

Obviously, the immediate effect, HIO was taken down.

The takedown happened because of I want my name,

which is a DNS provider.

I have to Excalibur draw this because there's a lot of layers

and I want to make sure that we get it right.

so if you know anything about software you know it is built on layers

if you have something like a dns provider this has to be built on something this is built on registrars

and i can't standard shit

so on top of the registrars we have a dns provider the dns provider is something

that you now use as the like service owner.

So when you are the owner of something like ping.gg,

hio, whatever, you have built on top of the DNS provider by buying the domain through them,

they are buying things through the registrar.

In this case, the service is a shop for buying games.

So the service has a layer on top,

which is users distributing software.

So now if you're a game dev,

you're shipping things on itch.io

so I should label these all itch.io is this layer you have a game dev

that is this layer we have I want my name is the dns layer and then you have a whole different layer,

which is users buying the software.

This is the layer I don't want to talk about the gamer.

What's interesting when you're in scenarios like this is how the liability chain works.

Let's say you're a separate party, in this case, Funko.

And you have identified that somebody is distributing software that violates your trademark.

You are Funko, and you've identified that at this layer,

a game dev is doing something that is illegal.

In an ideal world, Funko would go straight to that game dev doing that and tell them,

hey, if you don't stop,

we're going to go after you.

Because this isn't itch.io violating anything.

This certainly isn't I want my name violating anything.

This is a game dev supposedly using Funko stuff in an unlicensed way that Funko is now going after them for.

But Funko didn't do that.

You'd think, okay, the next best thing,

they're going to go to itch.

Nope.

Because Funko is not the one doing it.

Funny enough, what happened here is there's a middleman.

100

Funko contracts to Brand Shield to protect their brand.

101

And Brand Shield has their special way of doing this.

102

Brand Shield decided that it's easier to not go to the game dev who's causing the problem,

103

certainly not to go to the service owner,

104

but instead shortcutting all the way to the DNS provider and also in that process,

105

threatening them saying, hey, by the way,

106

if you don't comply with our demands,

107

we're going to go to the registrars that you work with and tell them,

108

by the way, you shouldn't work with this company.

109

They're distributing things that are illegal.

110

And this is where the problem happens.

111

The thing that sucks here is a user on this layer,

112

somebody who is distributing things on your service,

113

is capable of causing something much lower in your chain,

114

in this case, your DNS.

115

Without you being involved at all,

116

it's possible for somebody distributing software on your service to cause the things you're building on top of to get fucky.

117

To give an example for us,

118

because I dealt with this recently with Upload Thing,

119

by the way, if you're not familiar,

120

we built the best way to manage file uploads in your full stack applications.

121

Upload Thing allows users to upload files.

122

We had a similar problem.

123

Instead of registrars, I will call,

124

I'll put ISPs on the bottom, so internet service providers.

125

Then we have our hosting providers.

126

In this case, it's Cloudflare.

127

Then we have service owner, that's us, upload thing.

128

Service customers, which in this case would be a full stack dev.

129

And you have web app users.

130

I'll say this is users of service or users of,

131

I don't even know what to call this, actual end user.

132

Cool.

133

So it's fun here now.

134

Let's say somebody builds a clone of Google Drive using Upload Thing.

135

If you built an Upload Thing clone for Google Drive,

136

now you have users.

137

Let's say one of those users uploads spyware.

138

Now we have hosted on UTFSIO slash f slash spyware.exe.

139

Some end user uploads this file.

140

Now this file exists on Cloudflare's infrastructure.

141

This is key, and this is really dangerous,

142

not because this domain is associated with Cloudflare,

143

but because this file is being served from one of their IP addresses.

144

So because a user all the way up the stack here has uploaded some spyware,

145

this isn't the full stack dev's problem.

146

This isn't even our problem with uploading.

147

This becomes Cloudflare's problem because an ISP now will hit up Cloudflare and say,

148

hey, we're going to block your IP addresses because they're being used to serve malware.

149

And then we get a scary letter from Cloudflare saying,

150

hey, upload thing builders, there is spyware being served from your service.

151

You need to get rid of this ASAP ASAP because if we don't,

152

then Cloudflare's IP addresses get blocked by ISPs.

153

Now we have to go up the chain yet again.

154

So Cloudflare goes to us and says, hey, what the fuck?

155

Fix this.

156

Now we have to go up the chain once more and say,

157

hey, we just deleted this file.

158

Fuck you.

159

Our options now are we can ban this user

160

if we think they are aware of the malicious actions and not doing anything,

161

or they themselves are the malicious actor.

162

Or they now have to go up and they come back to us and say,

163

no, that wasn't us.

164

We had a malicious user.

165

We're sorry.

166

We'll do better filtering for it.

167

And they have to go ban their individual user.

168

So somebody all the way up the chain as a bad actor here can result in an ISP banning Cloudflare's IP addresses.

169

That's why these chains suck and why they have to be addressed as aggressively as they do.

170

But ideally, this would have happened much higher up the chain,

171

which is something we're now working on.

172

We're going to be restricting your ability to host files that are runnable and executable.

173

You won't be able to host bash scripts or CMD files or EXEs on free tiers ever again.

174

That's over now.

175

We've learned our lesson.

176

In the future, we'll be doing more scanning and things like that as well,

177

working on introducing all of that.

178

The fact that these things affect us in these hierarchies sucks

179

because now a user of a customer of our service can cause Cloudflare problems.

180

Thankfully, this was a notification system where we were told this was happening,

181

where in this case, Brand Shield didn't give anyone any opportunity here.

182

They went to I want my name and said,

183

if you don't ban this DNS and ban this domain right now,

184

we are no longer going to allow you to work with ISPs.

185

We will force legal action.

186

We will go to these ISPs.

187

You're screwed.

188

Get rid of this domain.

189

And out of panic, and also I would argue incompetence,

190

I want my name caved and removed one of the most popular domains on the internet.

191

One of the most popular IO domains for sure,

192

because they suck at their jobs.

193

But so does Brand Shield,

194

because Brand Shield should have had any system to notice,

195

oh, itch.io is a service for distributing other people's software.

196

They are the ones we should be hitting up.

197

But they didn't do that.

198

They went straight to I want my name and got itch.io banned from the internet for like over 24 hours.

199

And here's what Brand Shield had to say.

200

You might notice they have replies off and also a lot of community notes on this.

201

We want to address recent reports surrounding a website takedown.

202

Brand Shield serves a trusted partner to many brands.

203

Our AI-driven platform detects potential threats and provides analysis,

204

and in this case, an abuse is identified from an HIO subdomain.

205

We identified and reported the infringement and requested a takedown of the URL in question,

206

not of the entire HIO domain.

207

The temporary takedown of the website was a decision made by the service providers,

208

not BrandShield, because you didn't report it to the right provider.

209

You reported it to the DNS provider, not to HIO.

210

BrandShield remains committed to supporting our clients by identifying potential digital threats and infringements.

211

We encourage platforms to implement stronger self-regulation systems that prevent such issues from escalating.

212

Nonsense.

213

Brands showed these to realize that a subdomain is probably owned by the original domain.

214

And it should probably go to the service provider of the original domain to figure out what is wrong there.

215

And calling itch.io's mom, like that is horrifying.

216

Like I get that you want to get some press stuff

217

and you want to like cool it down and the HIO guy probably wasn't responding to your bullshit Funko Pop requests,

218

but going after his mom is just insane.

219

I would have loved to just blame Brand Shield and say Funko Pop's not the problem,

220

but this alone means all of these companies fucking suck and should be mocked relentlessly for what they've done.

221

They also moved off of I want my name after this because what the fuck?

222

Here's what Pirate had to say.

223

Instead of filing a DMCA claim to itch.io,

224

you sent a takedown request to their registrar.

225

Are you incompetent or are you just lying about your intentions?

226

For those that don't understand why this would set me off,

227

the company Brand Shield is a brand protection company that files infringement claims on behalf of their customers.

228

In this case, they filed an infringement request with Itch's registrar for a user-generated page that contained Funko Pop branding.

229

This led to a complete takedown of the website for the better half of this morning.

230

Sorry, I thought it was a whole day.

231

It was only half a day, I guess.

232

This is the equivalent to Twitch being taken down because a single user was streaming a copyrighted movie.

233

Yep, exactly.

234

And a good link from, funny enough, Twitch staff.

235

HIO's terms of service.

236

Look at that.

237

They have a whole section here for the DMCA.

238

If you believe one of our publishers has violated your copyright,

239

please let us know about your complaint with the required information so we can address the complaint.

240

If you think a complaint was filed in error,

241

you can also contact us to address your concerns.

242

There you go.

243

Technically speaking, since neither Brand Shield nor Funko are customers of HIO,

244

they're not expected to comply with HIO's terms.

245

but you should check them quick to figure out what the right method is for reporting.

246

But since this isn't a human doing a correct method of reporting,

247

this is a crappy rogue AI tool sending threatening emails around.

248

Disgusting.

249

This is what happens when you let AI go without a human in the middle.

250

Absolute fundamental failure.

251

And Brand Shield should at the very least check how popular a domain is before sending one of these bullshit accusations.

252

Ideally, they would shut down.

253

This is bullshit.

254

But like, yeah, God.

255

As Pirate said, Itch has a very easy process for handling DMCA claims and these processes were ignored.

256

It's clear that Brand Shield didn't do any research before firing the gun and they shouldn't be taking actions as such.

257

Brand Protection Company should know better.

258

The Registrar should know better and Funko Pop should know better.

259

To follow this up, Brand Shield has tried to blame the victim here.

260

Yes, they are continuing to try and blame people for doing things right effectively.

261

It's kind of insane.

262

It's like this should be the end of their business.

263

And I would be genuinely somewhat disappointed if people continue to sign up for their service after this.

264

Because I'd hope when you Google search them, this comes up first.

265

At Funko, we hold a deep respect and appreciation for indie games,

266

indie gamers, and indie devs.

267

We're fans of fans, and we love the creativity and passion that define the gaming community.

268

Recently, one of our brand protection partners identified a page on Itch,

269

imitating the Funko Fusion development website.

270

A takedown request was issued to address a specific page.

271

Fungo did not request a takedown of the Itch platform,

272

and we're happy to see the sites back up this morning.

273

He reached out to them to engage with them on this issue,

274

and we deeply appreciate the understanding of the gaming community as the details are determined.

275

Yeah, as the top reply says,

276

it's a lot of words to not say that they're sorry.

277

And on top of that,

278

not admitting that their brand partner,

279

Brand Shield, didn't contact Itch.

280

They skipped multiple steps and went all the way down the chain.

281

I would argue there could be a lawsuit here for irresponsible behavior on a brand with intention to damage.

282

It's pretty absurd.

283

Yeah.

284

This also should have been a DMCA request.

285

If it was actually phishing,

286

like they were trying to look like Funko Fusion when they weren't,

287

a fraud of phishing report might make sense.

288

But again, that should go to HIO, not to their registrar.

289

And I can't give any benefit of the doubt to Funko over any of these steps because of how they've behaved.

290

That's all I got on this one.

291

don't break copyright laws and if you do or you see someone doing it report it the right way please

292

until next time peace nerds
