One thing this AO3 outage has taught me - I should never try to be organized again. I usually have a ton of already loaded tabs of fic open on a browser on my laptop at all times and the ONE time I decide to just clear it all out cause "they're bookmarked I can find them later"

While #AO3 remains down, we wanted to share that work to restore AO3 and make changes to prevent future incidents is ongoing and proceeding well. We believe that our original return time estimate remains accurate. Learn more at otwstatus.org/incidents/g12j…
Earlier today, we detected evidence of a security incident on #AO3. We are still in the early stages of investigating. No AO3 data has been deleted. All your works, bookmarks, kudos, etc., are safe. Learn more at otwstatus.org/incidents/g12j…

Hi guys! Mochi Mims here from SocialMonster.org.
If anyone is having trouble figuring out how to get their fics removed from sites they never gave permission to host them, see the following screenshots for help.
We originally intended this to be a doc we provided in a link or download so people can copy/paste the templates, but we know everyone is understandably a bit leery of clicking things right now so please read the instructions and templates that tell you how to get this all taken care of.
We really are happy to help anyone who needs a little extra assistance for absolutely nothing in return, and there is an email listed in the images if you have questions.
SocialMonster was founded by a writer and a writer/fanartist who wanted a kinder/safer place for creatives. Helping protect your work is part of that, whether or not you ever use our social media platform. Note: this has worked for our own works that were up on some of the sites going around.

Guys, it's not weird or strange for writers to have social media centered around their content and engaging with others about said content. This is literally part of the fandom experience.

it’s so funny that people are saying “go read a real book” now that ao3 is down when so many of us are literature majors 😭 like honey dostoyevsky has some bangers but he doesn’t have the yaoi my soul craves

listen, as a writer, I do not care if my fics are shared around on Google docs or smth. I agreed to that when I posted any works because I knew there was a huge 'download' button at the top of it.
that being said— do not take my fics and then try to sell it for profit. thanks.

UPDATE on ao3(.)life:
OTW is aware of the site and is already taking action. They’ve asked people NOT to send personal information, and they do not need additional reports about this right now — more reports may only bog things down.
