US Secret Service may be tracking OnlyFans and other websites per briefing sheets

Per NYP

Recent documents revealed that the US Secret Service could be tracking OnlyFans. This information was revealed from a December 2020 briefing sheet from the agency.

A government watchdog organization, the Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), obtained the sheet revealing that the agency may be tracking other platforms. It was previously known that the US Secret Service tracked websites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Some of the accounts that the US Secret Service were tracking were either private or inactive. In the document, their usernames were redacted and could not be identified by NYP.

An agency spokesperson gave a statement regarding what they were doing, per Fox Business. However, they declined to comment on the operations.

"[T]he Secret Service is responsible for ensuring the protection and continuity of the American government... We take that mission very seriously and will be vigilant in monitoring all types of open source communications in strict accordance with all federal laws and the Constitution."

OnlyFans is popular for its adult-themed content, with creators given the option to put content behind a paywall. The US Secret Service may also be looking into another platform, Pinterest, known for allowing users to share recipes, home decor ideas, and other art/creative-themed content.

Towards the end of 2022, the CEO of OnlyFans said that they didn't see a slowdown in the popularity of their platform despite inflation. They also gave an answer to the questions as to whether they were considering becoming a public company.

OnlyFans CEO Amrapali "Ami" Gan said that they didn't have any plans to become a public company. They also noted that they didn't want to monetize their data and wouldn't add advertisers.

Recently, lawmakers and social-media observers said that social media played a huge role in fueling the banking system concerns amid the collapse of the Silicon Valley Bank.
