Onlyfans is.... unbanning porn? My guess is they thought complying with financial systems wouldn't be worth keeping porn. Then, when they banned it, their numbers dropped more than they thought and they realized compliance *was* worth keeping porn.

or, idfk. This is crazy town. it's possible this came from pressure on payment processors; I don't think Mastercard and Co. have ever had the public eye angry at them this much before. Maybe they agreed to be more lenient or make an exception for onlyfans?

Either way its annoying whiplash for me, I just spent the last few days working on a lot of stuff in preparation for the change and now I gotta spend more days undoing all of it.

This is an interesting theory that I had not thought of. Could be true. Hmmm.

It's crazy when you think about it. Payment processors should just stay invisible in the background and just collect $$$. Why do they try to morally police people's transactions without being forced by the law, drawing anger? Who's the driving force behind this puritanism?

💄OF will delay their IPO and instead keep making money of you guys. They figured this is more profitable than becoming a public traded company on NYSE. #onlyfans

Why is it even in Mastercard etc.'s interest to ban people from using them to buy porn?
