I mean, I don’t blame them for protecting their IP, they just picked a super shitty way to do it.
I don’t even think they would have needed an official cease and desist… just a friendly note of “Hey, none of this Funko material is licensed, please remove it.”

But they didn’t send a C&D, they sent an AI automated phishing report about a fan page for an actual licensed Funko game.
They weren’t address copyright anything, even if it was there.
Hence the “super shitty way to do it”. ;)
That’s not just a shitty way of doing it, it’s a fraudulent accusation of something unrelated.
