Bricks and Minifigs latest drama: They are seeking a TRO in an attempt to enjoin Patreon to take down Reckless Ben’s account. CEO Jack Conte says Bricks and Minifigs can “stuff it”. Here’s my prediction: Bricks and Minifigs is going to try to take down / seize the GoFundMe on the basis that Ben is using it to “finance criminal activity”. And if the Ottawa trucker protest past is prologue, GoFundMe will comply. Bricks and Minifigs is going to try to seize the monies in the GoFundMe account.
