Did you not read what the AYRT was saying? Even if such a case were won, simply getting embroiled in something like that can seriously harm a person's reputation or life. Most people are going to value not being labeled a creeper or a pedophile, even if only by popular opinion, over the ability of some random teenager to get their jollies on the internet.

AYRT

I read everything they said, and I'm not criticizing anyone's choices with regards to that. Legal action is one hell of a threat.

Most of fandom, at least the part of it that I frequent, is made up of adult women. While I'd assume we have a few predators, we don't remotely fit most people's idea of what a sex offender is like. I think the likelihood that most of our offline communities would turn on us because someone accused us of writing porn on the internet that was found by a minor is low. (Though, granted, this might depend on where you live.) I think the likelihood of fandom turning on someone for having lawyers sicced on them, in that situation, is even lower. But it's perfectly sane and reasonable not to risk that.
