Everyone is aware of the recent announcement made by representatives at OnlyFans who stated, “Effective 1 October 2021, OnlyFans will prohibit the posting of any content that contains sexually explicit conduct. In order to ensure the long-term stability of the platform, and to continue to host an inclusive community of creators and fans, we must evolve our content guidelines.” Well, as of August 25, 2021, the company made the executive decision to firmly reverse its previous upcoming rule. It took less than a week for OnlyFans users and content creators to make their confident voices and opinions heard by high stature OnlyFans representatives.
The corporation released a statement to fix its previous claim of banning sexually explicit content in a tweet that read, “Thank you to everyone for making your voices heard. We have secured assurances necessary to support our diverse creator community and have suspended the planned October 1 policy change.” The company’s CEO Tim Stokely reportedly declared that certain unnamed banks that closely work with OnlyFans wanted no ties linked to anything sexually related. It is still an unanswered question as to whether the platform came to an agreement with the banks, but what is for sure is that sexually explicit content users around the world will still be able to do their thing.
“Onlyfans stands for inclusion and we continue to provide a home for all creators,” they stated in a caption posted to their Twitter platform. Most recent calculations declare that throughout their 2 billion creators and 130 million users, the business has impressively managed to pay out a total of over $5 billion to performers and models across the globe. Due to the initial conclusion to rid of all sexually explicit content receiving incredible negative backlash from users and creators it is now clear that we will not be seeing a change in policy guidelines from the promotional platform.
