Summary
An investigator reported 26 OnlyFans accounts suspected of hosting child sexual abuse material (CSAM), leading to their removal within a day.
The accounts reportedly featured underage-looking individuals or content suggesting child exploitation.
OnlyFans claimed to verify creators’ ages through strict processes but faced criticism for profiting from imagery that mimics underage characteristics, which experts say normalizes pedophilia.
Despite content moderation claims, Reuters found additional concerning profiles, with 49 removed after inquiries.
Critics argue the platform must address coordination between accounts and better enforce protections against potential exploitation.
Definitely. The puritan uprising is happening all over the internet, and I hate it with a passion. People need to mind their own business and just click away if they see something they don’t like.
Sort of. I think it’s worth fighting back against child sex trafficking if you notice it online (instead of just ignoring it).
Nobody ignored it in this story though, they responded to reports and apparently most of the accounts weren’t actually involving underage persons.
It’s the same with modern Pornhub. The site used to be owned by a very unscrupulous group when it started but it got bought out by a company that has done everything they can to make it a stand up porn site. Yet every puritanical douche bag wants it shut down and they use the actions of the original owners as their “proof” of how bad the sure is even though it has been under new and better management for almost a decade.
