OnlyFans Models Are Accidentally Making Hacked Government Websites Disappear

Adult content creators are inadvertently causing hacked government and university websites to disappear from search results. This occurs when creators issue copyright takedown requests, often under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), to remove pirated content from search engines. Scammers have been exploiting insecure government and educational domains to host malicious pages, using the names of adult creators to lure victims. Consequently, DMCA requests aimed at protecting creators' content are leading to the removal of these compromised, but legitimate, government and educational web pages from search results.
