Episode 7: How OnlyFans changed porn | FT

Alex and Patricia track down the family behind OnlyFans, the site that has transformed online porn over the past few years by shifting power back to performers. But there is a whole other side to the OnlyFans story.
Hot Money will take you inside who controls the industry, tell you about the rivalries and expose the power battles. You’ll hear from adult directors and performers, tech pioneers and Wall Street billionaires - and you’ll be left surprised by who’s really in control.

this has been a very detailed and well researched podcast series

[@ianthesiow3013]

I really enjoyed the series... Keep up the great investigative work.
Also the way it was broken down in chapters and narrated was awesome... Great planning.

[@abeismain]

I like money. Users of only fans are different I guess.

[@JacobStein1960]

Financial domination of a man by a woman isn’t a kink. It’s called marriage.

[@rit.x]

Now I want somebody to finance me about a couple hundred million dollars so that I can build a payment system to support the porn industry out in the open. Patricia and Alex help me please!

[@kihembonobert8851]

Is this just an audio

[@khalidalali186]

Pushkin Publishers? The one with the tiny, white, and very distinctive book covers?

[@vishwanathnb128]

I am extremely disappointed that there is no any video footage in this documentary.

[@Yotrek]

We need a worker owned Version of OnlyFans.

[@alexanderphilip1809]

what beautiful delusional dream. The cost of maintaining the infrastructure necessary is not something that can be done by "worker owned" This isnt a collection of software engineers you are looking at. What a fcking joke.

[@rit.x]

Can you elaborate a bit please?

[@TSquared2001]

Interesting documentary............but financial domination as a fetish?..............NAH!

Financial times -. Pocket newspaper. From Russian.

[@user-nz6xd5cu4n]

I expected this to be a video. Probably better off creating a second channel.

[@amawaqum1269]

Are these guys proud of their achievements of porn? WTF , what kind of world that I am livin now ?

[@ilovebayern134]

Yes, they make tons of money and didn’t do anything wrong. They make it online and transparent instead of letting it be an underground industry like the past.

[@amawaqum1269]

@@ilovebayern134 very well , will you agree that your child works in this industry as a super star ?

[@jamesgreenldn]

@@amawaqum1269 exactly everyone is ashamed of this kind of “work” including the performers

[@casimiromediaproductions]

Fast Money = Slow Problems. Most men look at a woman's past if also dating them / getting into a serious relationship make or break deal just saying

I wish On1yF@n5 would become publicly traded so I can buy stocks... in support of all it's content creators, of course.

[@spencervance8484]

Oh of course. Of course. Second oldest profession.
