.....you don't have to have an account at AO3 to kudo or comment unless the fic is set specifically for members only.

[(Anonymous)]

DA - you have to provide an email address to comment on AO3. And I honestly think most of the people in fandom who are hesitant about sharing private info are usually not the sort to think of using a fake one when they’re unexpectedly asked for an email address.

[tabaqui]

......that seems extremely silly. And nobody sees the email address but the AO3 servers, so...who cares? I don't see why people get into such tizzies over stuff like this.

[(Anonymous)]

eh. AO3 is all volunteer and there’s no telling what rando may have access to the info you offer up to the server. Flamewars are the least of the fandom dangers these days, I wouldn’t want some psycho deciding my fic was problematic or they didn’t like me ten years ago in a shared fandom and doxxing me. AO3 doesn’t have one scrap of real info about me for that very reason.

[tabaqui]

Uh, wow. Nothing remotely like that has ever happened on AO3 because of a volunteer. WTH. There's cautious and then there's paranoid.

[(Anonymous)]

Not on AO3 specifically but it’s absolutely happened in fandom and AO3 doesn’t vet their volunteers. I’m one of the countless that got harassed by those two crazy Teen Wolf tag wranglers almost ten years ago and even though it was happening on the site AO3 was super slow to address it. I think it was like three weeks? It’s really not outside the realm of possibility that someone with access to personal information decides to misuse it for targeting purposes.

[tabaqui]

I'm sorry that happened. That sucks.
I don't actually know anything about that incident.

I still don't think that providing a random email and made-up name to AO3 to comment anon is something that would be considered risky.

[(Anonymous)]

randomly butting in: when I am not logged in and want to quickly comment on a fic on AO3 I usually just quickly google 10 minute mail and use the temporary mail address to put into the required field and all is good, no private data leaked and it really isn't such an effort

[tabaqui]

I had never heard of that before, cool! Thanks!

[(Anonymous)]

They can you use whatever@example.com for their email address. I'm surprised more people don't know about example.com.
