Hi guys

I'm doing my best to spread the word that this site AO3.life has scraped lots of fics from AO3 and is selling them for profit.

I removed the site link for ao3.life as it's gone now!

I have found at least 5 of mine there and so have my friends.

What can we do to stop them, I don't know? They say we can request our fics to be taken down but I think that would compromise our anonymity.

Update: I found this where someone reported the site and got a reply, so hopefully it is helpful: https://www.threads.com/@k.kinley24/post/DfPo6h2Gqsh/media?xmt=AQG0CjOMyS8v8V0npLV2WEm5QcRdhQLLdD22v4z8BXF-ECKorQjw1UbF_h4GqArnC9oB2IA

Thats pretty fucked up. You might want a lawyer, honestly. I can't think of many other ways to pursue this while maintaining your anonymity.
