Luanti (open source voxel game platform) removed from Google Play due to DMCA takedown from Microsoft, represented by Tracer.AI

I like this paragraph from Luanti's blog post:

From this, we can gather that Tracer uses AI agents for automated infringement detection. In a 2024 blog post, the company boasts “85% faster takedowns”, “100% more reviews month-over-month” along with “review times that are six times faster than traditional methods”. It claims this has resulted in “44% more takedowns month-over-month”.

I like how Tracer's highest concern here are number and speed of takedowns and not anything unnecessary like "not filing false claims".

And yeah, Tracer AI is a "brand protection" AI service that appears to automatically file takedown notices on anything it deems to be infringing.
