I mean there is no borderline illegal fanfic according to American law. The battle was fought long and hard. Members of the ao3 board literally spoke in front of congress. I am glad ao3 is as inclusive as possible, even if there is stuff on there I, personally, find repulsive. In the end it is just words on a screen on a nonprofit website, usually preceded by a warning and description of what you're gonna get.

The main controversy was that people made gigantic google drives and uploaded thousands of pdfs and epub files of fics and there was this discussion of some authors being upset about it because it was done without their consent and google drive auto feeds everything on them to be used for AI training. 

Oh and someone made a website with millions of scrapped fics from torrents or google drives and then sold AI audio books of those fics.

security issue sounds like a hack to me but we'll hopefully know more once they are back up and running.
