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.

The alternative is even more frightening for cops doing their jobs. Could you imagine how little the police would get done if they had special accounts with unlimited access to every OnlyFans account? Personally if I had something like that I would probably just phase out of this reality.

Ummm, you do know there is a website for that right?

Lol yeah, but that site only tracks photos and free videos. Paid videos are almost never on there
