The owner of OnlyFans, a site known for its adult content that is credited with revolutionising the online porn industry, has died at the age of 43.
Leonid Radvinsky, who was born in Ukraine and grew up in Chicago, had purchased the company in 2018 from its two UK-based founders.
The site’s popularity surged during the Covid-19 pandemic, landing him on Forbes’ annual list of billionaires just three years later.
He “passed away peacefully after a long battle with cancer,” OnlyFans confirmed in a statement, which asked for privacy for his family.
And you imagine they’d just give the cure (whatever form that may be) away for free? That’s not what billionairs are known for! Can you imagine the calamity that such power would cause? People getting a personalized quote for
curingmanaging their cancer, which will definitely include an “affordable” monthly payment. There is an applicable recent Black Mirror episode giving you an idea of a similar scenario.No, if there is ever such an endevour, I sincerly hope it will be funded by public money and there may no patents come forth of the research or cure.
Yeah we’d just get dynasties of an immortal ownership class. Yeesh. :(
I’d be all for it but I’m actually not sure how much the public would like to spend on this topic with lots of other things to take care of too.
Billionaires on the other hand just collect wealth and don’t have to think about the public opinion. They could even market it as philanthropy.
I’m aware that they might want to keep a lid on it but that’s still better than no cure at all.
I’m sure there are rich people who still have a conscience and may even act on it. The proposed idea (public funding for such research) is just meant to sidestep the morally bankrupts, who -despite being a minority- can still screw it up for everyone. Like the orange baboon and his slavish entourage.
