OnlyFans scraps plans to ban sexually explicit material after backlash

OnlyFans has scrapped its plans to ban “sexually explicit” content after securing an agreement with its payment processors.

Last week, the user-generated content site said it would ban adult material from 1 October, sparking outrage from many users and creators.

Responding to the backlash, OnlyFans reversed its decision, posting the following statement on social media:

"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. OnlyFans stands for inclusion and we will continue to provide a home for all creators."
