The world has never been more interconnected than it is today. Every major event has a butterfly effect in all aspects of our lives. Even though you might not think of this the first time you hear about war, the invasion of Ukraine by Russian forces has international implications that are also affecting the adult industry. But there is also fake news when it comes to war and porn.
Did PornHub Banned People From Russia?
This one is fake. PornHub did not ban traffic from Russia. The rumors have been spread on Twitter by Visegrad24, a Hungarian news website. But after a quick check with a Russian IP, everyone can see that it is indeed a false news story. So, why would a site put out fake news like that? It’s just because it sounds interesting. It’s a story to be shared. That’s why you’ve probably heard it already. If you did, just know that it’s not true.
Did OnlyFans Banned Russian Creators?
Another news involving the Ukraine conflict in the adult world was the OnlyFans situation. All the big sites, including the NY Post, have shared headlines telling us that Russian creators got banned on OnlyFans. The story is not entirely fake, but it’s not as the headlines might portray it. Indeed, the site placed some restrictions and limitations on account of Russian-based creators. The site froze withdraws, and creators couldn’t upload new content for a while.
But it was just a temporary measure in the context of international sanctions that limited the payment methods towards Russian-based account holders. The video uploads were temporarily placed on hold because there was no way through which OnlyFans could send the funds earned from new videos towards Russian creators. However, OnlyFans came out saying that it’s not a sanction of their own towards Russians. They are working on finding payment solutions, and everything should come back to normal. OnlyFans already lifted most limitations for Russian-based accounts.
Paxum Offers Assistance To Ukrainian Cam Girls
The online financial institution Paxum is probably one of East European cam models’ most popular payment solutions. In these uncertain times, Paxum has reached out to anyone working in the camming industry over in Ukraine. They offer free transportation and accommodation to any webcam models and auxiliary teams of cam studios from all across Ukraine who are crossing the border over in Romania. This helpful offer comes to everyone working in the camming industry, no matter if they use the Paxum payment method or not.
The situation is messy for everyone involved. Both Russia and Ukraine are significant players in the international adult world. If you know creators from either country, now it’s time to support them. Let’s hope things will get back to normal, and we can enjoy their content without worrying about their safety.
