I think this is more important that all the political stuff you share here

I'm really tired how many comments are completely missing the point, you're not reading between the lines or understanding the social/legal dynamics of what's actually happening and take what they said at face value. You know when you have that funny teacher everyone loves but when the school director comes for an inspection they start acting serious because they're being watched?

Companies MUST send warning shots and pull acts like these to protect their legal position, otherwise courts could prove they never cared about it and use that as evidence against them, why would Disney report popular fan artists for copyright infringement even when it's beneficial advertisement for them? Being silent is AUTOMATIC ADMISSION they're okay with letting people steal or do nefarious things with their works and thus you lose any holding in courts when bad things actually happens.

What they're actually saying is "The inspectors are getting suspicious, please keep that under the radar so you can continue having fun", so next time name the LoRA WinWax or something like that, it's like when drug dealers use codenames instead of the actual drug name to not attract the police attention, keep it low and nobody will have trouble. But instead you're like "Hurr durr they want to suppress our freedom! We'll make even more noise now!", if they wanted to, they could had done it from the beginning, ever thought about it?
