Brand Shield and other AI slopware needs to be sued to death for all the damage they cause, including their customer's reputation and bottom line

>>rf15+52
Even if the suit is 100% justified (which it is in this case), and you can show damages, the problem will usually be of jurisdiction.

Funko Pop is an American Company.

BrandShield, the "Brand Protection Software" they used, is based out of Israel.

iwantmyname, the registrar, is from New Zealand.

They got bought out by Team Internet, which is British.

And who knows where all of them are actually registered.

They are all going to point the finger at each other for the problem. Who do you sue, and where?

You don't necessarily have to sue them in their place of registration if they're doing business elsewhere. "Defending trademark rights" probably counts as that.
