OnlyFans, a platform that allows users to sell adult content subscriptions, announced that it will ban pornographic content when it is difficult to find outside investors.
Earlier reports stated that OnlyFans is trying to obtain more funds from investors who allegedly refused to cooperate with the company because of concerns that its reputation would prevent it from attracting brand partners. Allegedly, several investors also expressed concern about the creation of subscription accounts by minors. Aksios Report.
Some venture capital funds are also prohibited from investing in adult content, which makes it more difficult for such platforms to attract investors.
OnlyFans’s move to ban “pornographic” content from October 1st is part of the request made by the company’s banking partners and payment providers. Users can still post images that contain nudity, but the content should comply with company policies.
“OnlyFans will prohibit any content that contains sexually explicit behavior,” the company said in a statement. type“In order to ensure the long-term sustainability of the platform and continue to have an inclusive community of creators and fans, we must improve our content guidelines.”
It’s not clear what the new policy is and how the company’s moderators will determine which nudity does not meet the guidelines. OnlyFans stated that it will share more information with users in the “next days”.
“OnlyFans is still committed to the highest level of security and content review of any social platform. Before any content can be uploaded to OnlyFans, all creators are verified, and all uploaded content is checked by an automated system and manual reviewers,” The company added.
