JUST FYI ABOUT AO3 BEING DOWN || PSA IF YOU'RE A WRITER
There's a group of people very stupidly using Ao3's registered name and logo that have created a massive+public drive folder where they're uploading fics of as many fandoms as they can get their hands on.

It's not enough we just had that mess with ao3.life now we have another one targeting specifically black creators from ao3. I've found 3 of my usernames and fics I'd orphaned or put on private on this site.

Hi all! Thanks to Squidgeworld coming back up today I can finally share Chapter 22!
squidgeworld.org/works/10560โฆ
Bringing back the long fic! This one is special for me. It's gonna have lots of twists and turns and different subplots. Chapters to be posted as I finish them and Idk how many there will be yet.

not gonna spread rumors but I wonโt be surprised if it turns out the ao3 knockoff site, that monetizes fanfics without writersโ knowledge, is behind ao3 security attack. according to some writers, the site has fics that were deleted 10 years ago and fics that are in their DRAFTS

Adding to this, they have the audacity to say authors get paid as if we didnโt post knowingly on a non-profit archive like Ao3
Hey @OTW_News @ao3org this is worth your legal teamโs attention.

this site has been scraping ao3 for so long it has a fic i donโt even remember writing or posting . i orphaned several of my high school works in my early 20s so this hasnโt been on my profile for several years . really really concerning .

I hope the person behind this โwebpageโ burns in hell.
They have deleted fics, locked fics, and are making money out of it.
15 million works and who knows how many have they sold. Our free work being sold by someone that has fed the product of our love and care into an AIโฆ and we, the authors, have to be the ones opting out of this. Simply ridiculous.
Iโm never going to put a price tag to my writing or any barrier. Iโm the first one with a backup site for my fics and I'm freely sharing them with anyone who asks.
This is disgusting and sickening.
But no, Iโm not going to stop posting or writing. This is just an asshole and remember my friend, KARMA always comes back, and with vengeance.
