      No argument here, but it’s point of existence (besides profit) is to shield that identity. There’s no future outside of Everything Everywhere All At Once where this suit leads to a forced identity reveal. Worst case for that company is a settlement.

      Yeah, the whole “anonymous artist” is the bullshit bit.

      It really wouldn’t be hard to track down who it is. And he’s either honest on his taxes or a criminal.

      Might not be published knowledge, but people know.

      The people at the company absolutely know.
