      Ko-fi better change those content guidelines, then. You shouldn't allow an account to use photos of and belonging to someone else.

        "Using someone else's photos on a profile to impersonate them or use their likeness for commercial gain is generally against the law and a violation of Ko-fi's Terms of Service.
        1. Copyright Infringement: If you took the photos, you own the copyright. Using them without permission is theft of intellectual property."

          @randulo Almost all companies, esp. social media or shopping, are pushing back against copyright claims like that. When I send DMCA Takedowns to X or FB, for example, they rarely remove the work without a follow-up citation to the law from me.
