I wish we could just land on a remedy for this, specifically. "Everyone who'd ever posted to deviantArt, ArtStation, etc., before they were scraped gets a dividend in perpetuity." And force MANGAF to pay. Finally, a way for their outsize profits to flow to the people who've been getting the shit end of the compensation stick since online art platforms and social media became a thing.

It'll never happen because the grift is the point.
