Midjourney, a company associated with discord and subscription services, has faced a wave of criticism after banning a user, Rahll, and canceling their subscription for outing the company's blatant plagiarism and copyright infringement. Rahll also reported that Midjourney deleted all the content they had prompted from their gallery. Rahll provided a screenshot as evidence, highlighting how every single Thanos image was damning. The decision by Midjourney has been widely condemned across social media, with users describing the decision as 'terrible,' 'shameful,' 'appalling,' and evidence of 'disgusting behavior.' The controversy has sparked a discussion about the company's policies and the handling of copyright issues.
