The recent DMCA controversy surrounding the popular Skibidi Toilet and the sandbox game Garry's Mod has seemingly reached a conclusion. Following a viral backlash, Garry Newman, the game's developer, confirmed the issue is resolved.

Newman's surprised reaction, shared on a Discord server ("Can you believe the cheek?"), quickly escalated into a viral online dispute. While Newman confirmed the matter's resolution, the identity of the party sending the DMCA remains undisclosed, leaving the question of whether it was DaFuqBoom or Invisible Narratives unanswered.
The DMCA targeted user-created Garry's Mod content featuring Skibidi Toilet characters. The sender claimed these unauthorized games, which reportedly generate substantial revenue, infringed on their registered copyrights to characters like Titan Cameraman, Titan Speakerman, and Titan TV Man.
