Looks like the same thing as wikileaks to me. A combination of bad optics and lawyers getting involved causing a monopolistic supplier to pull their services.

Doubt this has much to do with MasterCard attacking the adult industry, it looks more like they want to strongly protect their existing stranglehold on the payment systems. Anything which impacts the way they're seen costs them real actually money I'd bet at their scale.
- colordrops 5y agoThis is still attacking the adult industry. You are just suggesting alternative motivations.
- rob_c 5y agoYes. Welcome to cancel culture.I can recommend some reading to get caught up.
- Guthur 5y agoOh please come on, stop with the monopoly rhetoric Only Fans is no where near a monopoly. It just comes across as truly naive to throw that term around in every conversation.
- Sebb767 5y agoI'm pretty sure they mean the payment provider are the monopolistic service.
- sokoloff 5y agoI read monopoly above as credit card processing, not OnlyFans.
- rob_c 5y agoAFAIK only fans doesn't provide services to MasterCard as an entity... I think that would be a scandal I'd enjoy reading if that's the case.
