@RaineTeer's post on Artfol
Rain’s thoughts: 
GOOD NEWS!!! My stuff has been removed from the Huggingface database!! But the person responsible for scrapping it mentioned that Artfol and PaperDemon RPG were spreading misinformation.
I’m not too sure what’s going on, but I’m relieved that they’re actually deleting artists information from the database.
If I did it, you can do it too!! ^^Apr 20, 2025

I mean, pretty sure they're just mad because PaperDemon started spreading the word. People like these don't think they're doing anything wrong by asking people to "opt out" because companies have gotten away with that BS for ages. It was theft when DeviantArt stole my stuff to train their crappy AI (only allowing us to "opt out" when it was too late) and it's theft when Huggingface does it. Hopefully my poisoned art is doing its job and messing with their dataset.

I think it's unfair to say they were spreading misinformation, because this person actually DID upload images from PaperDemon. Seeing that post by PaperDemon and the fact that artfol data has been uploaded too, it's easy to jump to the conclusion that artfol images have been stolen too (plus you can't preview the artfol dataset). Instead of saying "fact check your stuff" they could have immediately cleared it up but they didn't as far as I have seen
