Recent events surrounding the viral Skibidi Toilet and its impact on the sandbox game Garry's Mod have taken a bizarre turn. However, it appears a resolution has been reached, with game developer Garry Newman confirming the matter is concluded.
Who Issued the Skibidi Toilet DMCA to Garry's Mod?
Unclear if DaFuqBoom or Invisible Narratives are Responsible
Garry Newman, creator of Garry's Mod, confirmed to IGN that a DMCA notice was received late last year from parties claiming ownership of Skibidi Toilet copyrights. Newman expressed his disbelief on a Discord server, stating, "Can you believe the cheek?" This sparked a viral controversy. While Newman has confirmed the issue is now resolved, the identity of the party who sent the DMCA remains undisclosed.
The DMCA targeted unauthorized Skibidi Toilet-themed content within Garry's Mod, a game released by Valve in 2006. The sender claimed significant revenue was generated from these unauthorized creations, which utilized characters like Titan Cameraman, Titan Speakerman, and Titan TV Man – characters the sender asserted were copyrighted.
