Yeah, my guess here is that Onlyfans banked on mass outrage targeting the forces that were pressuring them. I don't think this was a stunt, I'd guess it was a strategic move after being pressed into a corner.

The OnlyFans CEO said it wasn’t payment processors, it was banks rejecting their wires. Based on your research, do you think this is true? This seemed suspicious to me because the OF October timeline was the same timing as the MasterCard rules coming into effect.
