Etsy 2026: AI-disclosure and "original designs" enforcement (from Jan 2026) plus unverified community traffic-collapse claim since Nov 6, 2025

Verified as real: (1) the original-design requirement for computerized-tool items (Cricut explicitly named), effective Jun 10, 2025 and still current in 2026, with documented removals and enforcement infrastructure; (2) an Etsy-acknowledged search-visibility failure from Nov 6–7, 2025 affecting a subset of established shops, unquantified and never officially resolved.
