还是想再提一下。“Archive of Our Own was born out of fans rebelling against corporate exploitation.”

AO3是OTW（Organization for Transformative Works）这个完全由粉丝经营的非盈利组织建立、由数千名成员和志愿者维护的，致力于保护、保存以及捍卫自由的同人作品及其合法权益的地方，服务器也是通过每年同人作者和同人读者的捐赠来维护运行。（AO3 isn’t just a fanfic archive. It’s the most well-known project from an organization called the OTW. The OTW is an entirely fan-run nonprofit organization, with thousands of members and hundreds of volunteers devoted to protecting, preserving, and defending fanworks and their legal right to exist.）

创始人Naomi Novik在2019雨果奖上说，“艺术创作不是孤岛，它诞生于群体之中。”（All fanwork, from fanfic to vids to fanart to podfic, centers the idea that art happens not in isolation but in community. And that is true of the AO3 itself.）当AO3获得雨果奖的时候，成千上万的人在汤和推上互相祝福，因为这是Archive of OUR OWN. OUR WIN.
