Ao3 is actually massively culturally important and very very good at being what it is. I鈥檓 so serious when I say that ao3 needs to be protected as the anti censorship, by fans for fans, nonprofit, volunteer run, expertly designed archival site that it is. You don鈥檛 have to read or like fanfiction to understand that on principle, ao3 is a site that should be defended.
