I don't understand the controversy really. A graphic designer at Disney used stock photography in their design of the poster, that's pretty normal and extremely common. It turns out that whoever uploaded that stock image to the service used AI to create it, but how is that Disney's fault? I don't get it.

Why would they use a stock image of Loki? That already seems like its own copyright issue. Any image or likeness of a Disney character isn't exactly "stock".

Read the fucking article, man. It's not a stock image of a character, it's the spiral clock background.
