Sharing the Design

GameCareerGuide writes: "Working as a professional video game designer in today's industry can be a colossal team effort. Developing video games, from large AAA console games to smaller downloadable casual games, requires an immense amount of cooperation between multiple designers to ensure every detail is accurately fleshed out and properly implemented. Collaboration is the name of the game when it comes to game development. We have a team-effort approach to everything, from the lowest level design tasks, such as defining a new feature or developing a new play mechanic, to plotting out and conceptualizing the games story and overarching vision".

it's a good thing, but it's also long been reported, across a variety of industries and websites, that currently the system is ripe for and full of abuses. From fair use strikes, to matters like the one reported in this article. It's clear the law needs some tooth to punish bad actors and that parameters need to be set in how reports are filed; ie human review of said content and not some AI bot false flagging stuff. As is the system is far to easily abused by those who have motive to suppress and flag content they have no business or right to.

No system will ever be perfect, but there needs to be a review, unless it blatant.

Until there's genuine consequences for this type of abuse, it'll keep happening across all media. DMCA is in principle a good thing, but it needs an overhaul.
