PSA: EBOOKS-TREE

[velvetpaws]

Just passing along a public service announcment for anyone who has their fics posted on AO3 or Wattpad: a company called ebooks-tree.com is pulling fics from both sites and posting them on their own site.

You can find information on what's going on and how to search for your fics here: http://the-original-n-chan.tumblr.com/post/116344500499/info-

They got me, too... #%$!%

Thanks for the head's up.

Wow. Thank you for this - they have three of my stories, too.

The problem now is that the AO3 says sending them your name or pseud as an e-signature is necessary...?

[velvetpaws]

Huh...it looks as though my stories got taken down without an e-signature, so it might be worth trying it anyway? (Where do they talk about the e-signature?)

[rheasilvia]

The AO3 advice on how to file a copyright complaint mentions an e-signature: http://ao3org.tumblr.com/post/116311865913/fyeahcopyright-update-below-weve-been

I went ahead without the e-signature, as I'm sure most people did.

It seems like they've taken down all the AO3 stuff now, along with a bunch of other stories. My three stories are now gone, too, and when I search for "Sylvia" there are 4 pages of results rather than the 9 that were there before...
