I listened to something interesting this morning about The Economy of Attention. I think it can be employed to Ao3 seeing as the Economy of Attention has shifted to being vitally important to younger generations. They need the engagement otherwise their attention feels wasted
Can I just say, fanfic authors from pre pandemic and earlier literally Do Not Give A Fuck.™ Younger/newer authors gameify fanfics because "boohoo statistics, boohoo my kudos". Older gens know writing is for the love of the game who the FUCK cares about your stats.

In a world where everything is monetised, the younger generations need a reason to keep doing what they're doing, because the more attention they get, the more valuable they see themselves. Which is sad. We've gone from doing things that make us happy, to doing things that give

Us some perceived feeling of value from other people. The push to make our lives more online has forced this Economy of Attention to become even more obvious since it was first written about in the 70s

So they intend to kill every game they own the IP to huh? Fuck @EA
🚨 EA are officially cracking down on mods for F1 25 Reports from the EA Creator Network is that EA are now telling creators that they are not allowed to "mention any mod sites going forward" - most likely meaning creators are now not allowed to advertise where they can download or how to install mods in F1 25 Currently, we do not know the specifics EA are asking of creators going forward, but what we can speculate is that mods that port older F1 game content from 24 and older to F1 25 are under huge scrutiny from FOM and the main reason for the crackdown. This includes classic-modern cars, old tracks and past features The current resurgence of F1 25 modding could also be an issue for EA in terms of potential sales of the upcoming F1 27 game, with more people sticking to F1 25 if the next game in the series is not an overwhelming upgrade

Still not over this. You know he only did it because he was in 50ft of Daniel and he can't help letting the goofy out

You shouldn't have to pay a price for choosing not to use AI. “This is a particularly clear example of the tech industry going out of its way to force A.I. on us all — even if we have said we don’t want it.” —Morgan Polikoff, USC AI should always be a choice. Turning it off shouldn’t cost a school its search engine too.

This situation feels like an effort to get fanfic banned. By making it high profile, people ordering take downs and DMCAs, it's bringing more and more attention. It wouldn't shock me if this is a deliberate attack on one of the last censorship frre spaces on the internet
bro what the fuck are we doing. is this just life now

Hit tweet I guess? GO VOTE TODAY IF YOU'RE IN THE US! Censorship is being pushed by those in power, it doesn't end at journalism and libraries! Places like Ao3 will NOT survive if those pushing censorship and destruction of Archives of ANY kind are voted into power!

While you're also here, wanna stick it to Kushner and his censorship push in gaming? His meddling at EA has brought about the closure of BioWare. #SaveMassEffect sign the petition! change.org/p/savemasseffect
