Right? isn’t that just a wildly nonsensical interpertation of the law?

It wouldn’t stand up in court at all.

But ffnet doesn’t want to go to bat for it’s writers, legally.

The best part about AO3 and the OTW is they have a legal fund for exactly that situation.

If some angry mom takes you to court for little Timmy reading your second person fanfiction smut, AO3 had your back.

And you should absolutely write second person fic if you’re inspired to! We write it a lot and it’s really fun!
