The website, which is primarily known for hosting X-rated content that can generate millions of dollars in income for its most popular users, announced on Thursday that it is 'evolving its content guidelines' after facing pressure from its financial backers.

One US-based creator, Camila Elle, 21, accused the site of 'using' its explicit creators to promote it on social media and draw in users - noting that many, including herself, have turned OnlyFans into a full-time career, abandoning other professional opportunities in order to dedicate themselves to creating the kind of risque images and videos that will soon be banned. 

'I feel betrayed by OnlyFans, I made it my entire livelihood, and quit my dreams of becoming a doctor to pursue a full time career on the site,' the college student said. 

'Sex workers built this platform, it's a business to us.

'They used us to build the site and now they're throwing us away.'
