Description

What is OnlyFans, and why did OnlyFans abandon and then come back to its primary business model in the span of a week? MEL Magazine’s Magdalene Taylor joins Recode’s Peter Kafka to explain the rise of the NSFW platform, and why some banks are reluctant to work with a company that consumers seem to love. Then BuzzFeed News’ Joe Bernstein talks about his recent story on the disinformation/misinformation industry, which isn’t exactly what we think it is.

Featuring: Magdalene Taylor(@magdajtaylor), Staff Writer for MEL Magazine
Joe Bernstein (@Bernstein), Senior Technology Reporter for BuzzFeed News
Host: Peter Kafka (@pkafka), Senior Editor at Recode
