OnlyFans Says It Will Ban Sexually Explicit Content

Looking for that Tumblr 💰

Which obviously backfired and made the purchase a spectacular waste of money, but it worked out pretty well for the sellers, so....

I guess someone might be suckered into buying AlmostPatreon(ButWorse).

So that's like.... 90% of their revenue stream gone I guess? :LOL::ROFLMAO:

I know I'm exaggerating, but this doesn't seem like a good move from face value.
 
Meh, there's Fansly. New-ish site though several online camgirls that I knew of were promoting the site.

 
From what I've read on SB on this situation is that Only Fans got a lot of letters from various banks, some who threatened that the executives, their families or any company that would employ them in the future would be blacklisted by those banks in the future, if Only Fans would continue to support explicit content.

Those executives seem to be between a rock and a hard place, either they loose money, or they 'starve', because they won't be able to get new job and they won't even be able to get a new bank account.
 
Truthfully, kind of a bitch move by the banks though. Some of the creators using Only Fans are reliant on that money as they've been out of jobs because of the pandemic.

Yes, it does sound like a weak excuse to some people but it is what it is.
 
Which doesn't seem to address some of the issues found there: unless videos exploiting the homeless is also porn? Also revealed just how skeevy the company is if they let child abuse pictures and videos slide there.
 
This is why I think crypto will have their niche in the medium to long term, as the banks become more morally virtuous and finances still have to happen at the edges of society...
 
"Infantilized populace can't deal with actual adults who remind them how infantile it is to want to 'play house' into your 40's and 50's, News at 11"
 
Maybe somebody told them the tale of Tumblr? Sells for 1.1B, six years later sells again for 3M.

Or, more likely, the suitors they were courting were aware of what happens when you remove nearly your entire revenue stream and backed awy.
 
The banks probably got their concessions and therefore content for the moment.

They will be back though, sooner or later.
 
Its more like the bad publicity is a large reason for it.
How cute.

These are capitalists. Like Toydarians, mind tricks will not work on them, only money.

Mean words mean nothing to these guys. They just realized that they were going to lose their cash cow, either by their users all leaving, or by becoming so toxic that no one will give them money (it's a bad thing to do with a dying business).

The banks probably got their concessions and therefore content for the moment.
Pretty hard to say that. Mastercard is involved, and their policies have a clause wherein every piece of content on the hosting site has to be pre-screened to ensure there is nothing illegal going on. Which is impossible, unless OF went and hired a hundred thousand people or so to watch live shows and kill them if they violate policy, plus watching every upload.

If anyone were to back down from "bad publicity" it would be Mastercard. Their rules are bullshit, almost impossible to comply with, and it really shows that they are prudish. That wouldn't matter so much, but as soon as this story came out everyone stood up and declared that maybe they need to find a way to cut MC out of the picture. Some said they needed to start using crypto (maybe; it is still fairly immature as a payment option), others just started putting pressure on their middleman services to say "sorry, but we would rather just cut MC out of our payment options". They care more for a cut of a transaction more than their policies, so long as they can look at their shareholders and say "Oh, well, we tried. But we got 50% of our demands met and covered our asses from legal blowback. You don't expect us to give you less money though, do you?" they will suck it up and try to be business as usual until the board pressures them to go after someone else for being too impure.
