If anybody is wondering, Tracer.ai is legit and operating at the instruction of Microsoft.
They’re an AI brand protection service which has been systematically harming Microsoft’s brand for a while. An example - getting YouTube videos about Minecraft removed, which has hindered Minecraft’s visibility online (which is a huge part of Xbox revenue)

Oh my fucking god! Please, M$, do continue!!

I do not understand why they want to remove minecraft videos.

Minecraft videos have been a huge part of it's growth... and it's impossible to imagine a scenario where these videos are harming MS or their brand. They already make money off of viewers buying the game... this is stupid

For the same reason they went after the admin of the wrong instance asking them to delete the fake microsoft account - it's a dumb algorithm doing a shit job. That this is a separate company that is being paid while doing such a shitty job says a lot about microsoft
