Hold up, the problem with jailbait is it was scantily clad little children in sexuality suggestive situations. That was the problem. Whether it was technically legal or not it's irrelevant, it was intended to sexualized children.

It's "not a good look" because it's abhorrent trash meant to skirt child porn laws. Was it illegal? No. Was it just advertisers who had a problem with it? Also no. Users thought it was abhorrent too. There were user campaigns to ban the sub all the same, who do you think kept notifying the media?
