OnlyFans has not released any statement on Ofcom’s decision. The company has claimed it follows child protection laws, but its silence raises questions about whether its safety measures truly work.

Although this case is over, Ofcom will still monitor OnlyFans. If more issues related to underage access appear, the regulator may take further action to enforce stronger safety guidelines.
