I believe that fdk-aac is OK. I already discussed about this on:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/588443/use-copr-with-rpmfusion-n...
And see the last comment which points:

Hello Miroslav,
This is the modified version (I would defined as "less patented") that
was accepted in fedora. Here is the full unmodified (full of patents)
version.
Also both modified (fdk-aac-free) and unmodified version are known to
remain GPL incompatible. (so cannot be used with GPL built FFmpeg).
This is also mentioned in the FSF
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.en.html#fdk
There is an internal AAC encoder(/decoder) is FFMpeg, so many users
believe they need it. But in most use-case they can use the internal
one instead.
Thanks
