There are countries where sites like OF are censored so you can't even reach them... or places where there's no connection at all. Some OF creators say it's to avoid piracy and illegal video sharing, but I think people who get videos for free would not buy those videos anyway. This choice, at least for me, makes it clear it's now a complete nonsense to keep on being subscribed and waste money with OF creators only to watch some streaming videos and buy very expensive (price+taxes) ppv videos anymore. Most of them are extremely avid and don't really take care of their fans, rent someone else to answer their requests, automatically and routinely post links to older and new ppv videos, sometimes even without a preview (blind purchases for dummies). Some of them use the tactic of teasers on their Twitter to lure you and subscribe their OF and once inside, you discover you'll get the identical 30 seconds videos you previewed for free on Twitter. If you protest with those cheaters politely asking for explanations with DM, most of them don't reply or even block the chat.
Of course OF managers consider "fans" only cows to milk, so have all the interest to keep subscribers subscribed and limit cancellations, offering this sort of streaming service.
My personal opinion is that keep on wasting money on OF subscriptions is, especially nowadays, a total nonsense, taking a very high risk to be disappointed about the content really offered once inside to the paying "fans" (customers), considering most of the hot stuff is sold as ppv extras, but of course mine can be considered only an isolated opinion.
