i just came across this. Cubebrush has banned all AI content. When FAB is going to do the same? - #3 by EN6A6E
a bit extremist to outright ban, imho, but it could be a starting point for addressing this very real issue.

Not just AI. This entire user profile I have reported for copyright infringement and theft. All of their assets are stolen and reposted. Theft and AI seem to go hand in hand on Fab lately.

So this proves that whoever is processing these reports is complicit in allowing these stolen assets. There is no helping Fab at this point.
I’m not trying to railroad to a different subject. These issues go hand in hand. There are bad faith actors and thieves taking advantage of Fab and its developers goodwill.

When you reported it, did you indicate where the assets were taken from?

( I must say, that park looks awfully familiar )

Hey there @ClockworkOcean! I hadn’t come across this, thanks for the heads up. @EN6A6E Do you have some links to some of the infringed material?

The report process doesn’t give people the option to specify anything. I tried multiple options and the reports were dismissed

I remember reporting someone who was reselling Megascans assets one time ( read it and weep ), but I used the marketplace support email. I assume that doesn’t exist any more…

Hey! We’re aware of this and are working on addressing it. A more detailed post will be coming soon.

Just admit the failure that Fab is, and go back to the standards and human control the Unreal Marketplace had.

Give them some time. Now that we finally have their attention, something might get done. If they removed humans from the equation then they will need to put them back or figure something out.
