China blocked OnlyFans, calling it a “corrupt western disease.” Officials say the site spreads bad content and goes against their values.
“OnlyFans spreads vulgarity and hurts society’s healthy growth,” said a spokesperson for China’s Cyberspace Administration.

The ban fits with China’s push to control online content it finds harmful. The government is focused on stopping adult or sexual content on foreign platforms.
“Protecting young people and family values is very important in internet rules,” said Wang Wei, deputy director of the National Internet Information Office.
