Can you explain this? I’m just a casual fanfic reader and I feel like I’m missing some context. What exactly are AO3 users doing that you don’t like?

They have a legal fund to try and stop authors and creators from asserting control of their own IPs. They think that if you publish something, then it should be fair game for anyone else to use it as they see fit. Notably this stance does not apply to fanfic authors though, who are entitled to the type of IP protection that Disney would have wet dreams to achieve. AO3 wants to tear up everything we have on copyright law for everyone else though.

Oh, word?

...I think you need to do a bit more research on the subject.

lmao

Do you even fandom? Are you Anne Rice's ghost?

Someone making fanworks doesn't affect anyone's copyright.

I wish AO3 were destroying copyright.

What? What legal fund? AO3 is just fanfic. Fanfic doesn't do anything to copyright unless someone tries to make money from their fic.

Kid. Drink some water. Get some sleep. Come back when you're not bugfuck flaming crazy. Okay?

Oh no. You need to learn what fair use is. And the predatory practices of copyright holders in quashing everything.

(Anonymous) 2022-04-04 12:07 am (UTC)(link)
I believe people have been writing fanfic for millenia before AO3 (Dante's Inferno? Even if it is as a critique of society). Also, even if AO3 didn't have a legal fund,that's not stopping anyone from making mailing lists and writing fic from a notebook. Echoing the fair use and whatnot comments.

Tell me you don't understand copywrite law without telling me you don't understand copywrite law.

No they don’t, and I knew you would go down this conspiracy theory road, because I knew you were the “AO3 is the work of demons who want to strip the rights of IPs from creators and undermine the very concept of copyright!” idiot the moment you immediately connected the concept of fandom entitlement as a whole to AO3 with no reasoning. Not everything is about your AO3 hateboner, and nobody asked to see your crazy “evidence” board.

(Anonymous) 2022-04-04 10:17 am (UTC)(link)
You're just an anti mad that AO3 isn't taking down those terrible terrible badwrong fics even when you stomped your feet and threw a tantrum, aren't you

(Anonymous) 2022-04-04 11:40 am (UTC)(link)
Well this is inaccurate.
