On Thursday, news broke that OnlyFans would be banning all sexually explicit material starting in October 1. OnlyFans confirmed the news shortly thereafter, stipulating that the platform — which made billions largely due to sex workers who utilized the service to sell sexually explicit content — would be releasing details shortly. For a while, speculation rose amongst creators that the site would not be instituting the ban and dubious screenshots began to circulate adding credence to the idea. But on Friday, OnlyFans emailed all of its content creators with the details of the company’s new world order. In the email, OnlyFans states, “Dear OnlyFans Creator, This email is to notify you of changes to our Acceptable Use Policy that will go live effective October 1, 2021. The new policy will prohibit the posting of any new content containing sexually-explicit conduct. Content containing nudity will continue to be allowed as long as it is consistent with the policy. Existing content that does not meet the standards of the new policy will need to be removed before December 1, 2021.”
