    Let’s perform a thought experiment.

    This is a mod, so it’s fan-made, so the company has some plausible deniability.

    But suppose that a fan made a mod which replaces the Batman model with a carefully-rendered and textured version of Kevin Conroy’s naked body. Just ol’ Kevin, kicking and back flipping through the whole game with his dick, balls, taint, and asshole on full display all throughout.

    Would the company require that mod to be taken down, or would they be cool with it?

    Because how is this any less of an obscene violation of Kevin Conroy than a nakey Kevin Conroy mod would be?

      TBF even if they had censored the genitalia it would be still be a shitty move. Even famous people have the right to their identity being used

        Even if it was just ripping off their voice it’s a shitty move. Even famous people, who make a living on their vocal characteristics, have the right to their identity being used.

        See what we did there? Fuck this AI bullshit.

          Oh yeah definitely. But was only talking about the hypothetical other mod that was in the comment.
