OnlyFans bans explicit porn

OnlyFans stats profiles with more Likes

OnlyFans takes a radical turn in its content policy and, from next October 1, the platform will will ban explicit graphic porn content. This is a before and after for the company, in which most of its users were sharing racy content, although it could also be used for other purposes such as sharing educational content and training.

OnlyFans will allow nudity as long as it complies with its rules of use

However, OnlyFans was already hinting at a change in its content policy this week when it launched its mobile app, in which nudity is not allowed. What seemed only a necessary requirement to get permission from the app stores – Google Play Store and Apple Store – to host their app, was actually just a foretaste of what was to come. Explicit pornographic content will be banned as of October 1.

This has been officially acknowledged by OnlyFans through a statement. It points out that it is a way to “meet the requests of our payment partners” and that the measure is also taken to “ensure the long-term sustainability of the platform”. However, this possibly goes against the way many users understand the platform, which earned considerable amounts of money by offering racy content.

OnlyFans has not indicated how the change will be carried out, if gradually over this month and a half remaining for the measure to come into force or if it will be abruptly from October. The company recognizes that it will do everything in its power to support content creators and help them in the change of business model.

It should be noted that what OnlyFans will ban is “explicit pornographic content”, so on the web will be allowed, for example, nudity (not so in their mobile applications). That’s as long as the content conforms to the “responsible content policy” that the company has.

Be that as it may, the measure has sown doubts among creators and consumers of content on the platform, who are wondering what the future of OnlyFans will be like from October.
