We want to clarify the recent notifications some Creators received related to the word "cyber."
Cyber was previously a blocked word, and we recently made a change to unblock it. During that process, it was temporarily moved to AP, which unintentionally triggered notifications for a number of Creators.
Cyber itself is now fully unblocked and can be used for both GA and AP products. Please note, some variations of the word are still restricted to AP.
If you received a notification for an affected product, you may need to go to your Creator Dashboard and select Refresh My Catalog for the change to be reflected.
Sorry for the confusion, and thank you to everyone who brought this to our attention!

They should be clearer with this kind of issue and explanations because I don't speak English very well either, and it's not just cyber or ciber... everything that involves the word cyber-netic... cyborg or cyborg.. NPC as well... Do I have to modify my products one by one because of word restrictions? And cyber.. or ciber is... it's absurd that this word has restrictions, I don't understand or get it

We recently added a new term to our Shop word filter. As a result, the newly restricted keyword used by this product will no longer be used to help this product appear in Shop search results: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I received half hour ago this message, and I did what you said (the refresh).. but as I'm not english speaker, I not much sure what happens with this.. I don't understand the reason why the word "cyber" can be a restricted thing.. time ago happened something similar with the word "magic" (or something similar) ¿?¿?¿? people can "register" words like that as owners, and restrict the use to others? *puzzled*
