Recent DMCA drama surrounding the viral Skibidi Toilet and the popular sandbox game Garry's Mod appears to be resolved. Garry Newman, Garry's Mod creator, confirmed to IGN that he received a DMCA takedown notice late last year from individuals claiming to represent the Skibidi Toilet copyright holders. The notice targeted user-created Garry's Mod content featuring Skibidi Toilet characters, alleging copyright infringement and significant revenue generation from unauthorized use.
Newman's public reaction on Discord ("Can you believe the cheek?") fueled the viral spread of the news. While the identity of the DMCA sender remains unconfirmed (speculation points towards either DaFuqBoom or Invisible Narratives), Newman has stated the issue is now resolved.
The DMCA targeted user-created content within Garry's Mod, a game known for its extensive modding community and user-generated content. The characters in question included popular figures from the Skibidi Toilet series, such as Titan Cameraman, Titan Speakerman, and Titan TV Man.
