"B B C: OnlyFans accused of conspiring to blacklist rivals"
Love you, tooSaturation Hall, Langstonedale

From the BBC News website this morning:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-60029508
OnlyFans has been accused of conspiring to blacklist the social media accounts of adult performers working for rival websites, BBC News has learned.
Legal documents, previously unreported, claim OnlyFans directed an unidentified social media company to disable accounts of performers by placing their content on a terrorism database.
It is alleged that OnlyFans representatives paid bribes to the firm's employees to facilitate the practice. OnlyFans says it is aware of the legal claim and it has "no merit".
UK website OnlyFans - best known for hosting pornography - has grown hugely in recent years. It lets users share video clips and photos with subscribers in return for tips or a monthly fee.
Performers often use social media accounts - including Twitter and Instagram - to promote and link to adult websites showing their explicit content.
BBC News has learned that rival adult website FanCentro has begun legal action in the US against OnlyFans' owner Leonid Radvinsky and the company which receives OnlyFans' payments, Fenix Internet LLC.

Is it bad this doesn't surprise me in the slightest? If it's proved true, I hope damages can be paid in someway to everyone affected, since I assume this affected both the companies' and individuals' income pretty badly.

Wow... erm, okay.

Misusing a terrorist database like this should be criminal.
Although we should be also concerned as to what we are getting with our anti terrorism laws. "Back to normal" is being used for the lifting of covid restrictions right now, but since the turn of the century we've been getting an increase of terrorism related restrictions, with no to little chance of being able to go back to normal on those, despite the fact that terrorism kills so few in many parts of the world.
Many of the restrictions were originally brought in as temporary measures.

Jesus...that was a read. Have to agree with Violet that isn't in the slightest surprising. Even if true, and convicted, the damage is done. How does one quantify the "what ifs" of what visibility the affected accounts would have had (at least this is what will be argued in the courts).
Meanwhile more rules and sanctions to be drafted and applied to the actual sex workers for everyone's "protection".
I fucking hate this timeline more every day.

The UK is just dystopian at this point... I mean the world is as a whole, but the UK in particular is just unbelievable.

Facebook has now been named as the previously unnamed social network responsible for the collusion. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-60497274
Facebook has been accused of colluding with OnlyFans to blacklist rival adult websites in a lawsuit filed in the US.
This week, BBC News revealed that OnlyFans was being sued over claims it directed a social media company to disable accounts of adult entertainers by placing their content on a terrorism database.
Facebook has now been named as the company alleged to have conspired with OnlyFans in a class action filing. Its parent company, Meta, says the claims are "without merit".

I would rate the UK as only in 4th place....have you seen what has been happening in Canada, Australia and the USA recently. Trust me, I was born in the UK and I have lived in Australia, and Canada and now I am in Florida....and things are much more dystopian and authoritarian now in Canada, USA and Australia than the UK is right now. For example, Canada is now beating people in the streets who wish to peacefully demonstrate in support of the truckers and is now freezing their bank accounts. The Onlyfans / Facebook collusion is just the tip of a wider problem....e.g. The Canadian government colluded with the Crowdfunding platform Go Fund Me to seize all the funds raised by the peaceful Trucker demonstrations now. Freedom of Speech and the right to assemble has been squashed by the govenrnent officials in Canada, Australia and the USA....we have lost that right already. Trudeau in Canada actually praises the dictatorships in China and Russia.
You are better off living in the UK than you are in Canada or California these days,
Do unto others, then run
Not surprised in the least.

I so agree with all of this. I'm not good with words so I appreciate your post. What a great day it will be when all these political figures answer for their crimes. You're not just one person. You have a voice. Stand up and speak out. Evil truly wins when good people do nothing.
