Yo, I just had the craziest idea, so this guy within 3 hours of me has a tank or three, what if we buy one of them and storm whatever place is scraping this data.
They've done a dataset for CharacterHub too, but luckily it got taken down. So hopefully their dataset for this one gets taken down too :m
Yeah, this "nyuuzyou" person has a dataset on this site called HuggingFace, where over million artworks here (including mine, and probably yours ;-;) have been scraped for AI training. Perhaps you've seen already, but the Artfol team has been sending instructions in the comments of the trending posts showing us how to report them for copyright infringement (.-. ")
