Dozens of posts featuring Mario images were taken down after Tracer, using AI, identified copyright violations for Nintendo, highlighting ongoing battles over fan art and AI-generated content.
Tracer issued DMCA takedown requests for several posts, indicating their AI solutions target not only blatantly infringing content but also fan art and other creative expressions.
The response from users indicates a chilling effect, as even harmless depictions like a drawing of Mario are now under threat of legal action or account termination.
Nintendo’s history of stringent copyright enforcement raises concerns over how AI is influencing content sharing on platforms, leading to censorship of fan-created art.
