pornography is not a profitable industry. even famous participants like 'mia khalifa' only made GBP9.5k (USD 12.8k) lifetime earnings. The average onlyfans has about 21 fans, with an average subscription price of $7.20.

the future of the industry is probably ai slop, personalised ai, and so on

one of the purposes of the porn industry in 00s was money laundering: cash only, large stores with no CCTV, very sparse records, not possible to objectively value why a dvd was being sold for $85

The industry is profitable .. the onlyfans founder is now worth circa $8 billion.

Being grist in the mill of that industry, however, only leads to being ground up for the consumption of others.
