Just days after making the bombshell announcement that they'd be banning sexually explicit content, OnlyFans apparently decided "Hey, you know what? Let's NOT kill the thing we're making billions from," and reversed the decision.
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.
In the days since the initial announcement, the company tried to clarify that the decision had more to do with banking partners than anything else.

Only Fans realized that they have absolutely zero capacity to become the next YouTube so they retracted that ban with the quickness lmao

I guess time will tell if OnlyFans can reverse the damage this entire incident caused to their brand's perception. Until then, stay horny, my friends!
