    OnlyFans told Reuters that police do not have to subscribe to investigate a creator’s posts, but the platform only grants free access to accounts when there’s an active investigation. That means once police suspect that CSAM is being exchanged on an account, they get “full access” to review “account details, content, and direct messages,” Reuters reported.

    God forbid police have to do their fucking job.

    Headline should read:

    ‘Cops upset they have to pay to jerk it like everyone else.’

    These “cops” could check their local Catholic church or another place of worship, if they were looking to “detect” for child abusers.

    “Jeff, why the living fuck have you tried to claim 5 femboy OnlyFans premium-tier subscriptions on your work expenses account?!”

    sweating “uhhh… to… ummm… make sure it wasn’t CSAM…?”

    Oh! Nice work Jeff. Very proactive. For a second I thought something dodgy might have been going on.”

    If only fans is not encrypted, wouldn’t these cops have other ways to detect and tackle csam material?

    Assuming it is not encrypted, what’s stopping them from doing their job? Only thing I can think of they could use as an excuse would be, accessing copyrighted materials, especially since it’s under a pay wall.

    I’ve never had an OnlyFans account, but I do have social media accounts. I have had the distinct impression in recent years of being stalked, followed online.

    However, that intensified monitoring seems to have only just begun. NCMEC just got access to OnlyFans in late 2023, the child safety group told Reuters. And NCMEC seemingly can’t scan the entire platform at once, telling Reuters that its access was “limited” exclusively “to OnlyFans accounts reported to its CyberTipline or connected to a missing child case.”

    Bit of a side note, but why did they go with CSAM, when CP is quicker and easier to say/type?
