Cannot believe the day came where I had to view lock my AO3 to registered users only but here we go. There is a bot scraping works from Ao3 and mass uploading them to an AI learning website called rivd, and the only way to protect your work is to lock your fics.

to the beautiful writers that might see this, ao3 is currently being scrapped by an AI company called RIVD. this isn't your usual AI text scrapping, they are specifically targeting ao3 to feed their own AI / "tech-orientes" fanfiction site

their "takedown form" demands that you give them your full legal name and address. they do not say what they're doing with your personal details. there's no proof that this form works

until ao3 comes out with a proper statement or manages to lock their scrapped, just lock your fics for registered users
