Also, OnlyFans will prey on you. Doordash will prey on you. Clash of Clans will prey on you. The stock market will prey on you. Your church will prey on you.
You have two choices. Control yourself (only you can do it) or be a sucker
How does onlyfans prey on you exactly? Perhaps for some people it does but I feel the porn addiction thing is pretty overblown. I don’t doubt some have it but the internet will have you think everyone who watches porn is an addict.
I think they’re referencing the app/engagement model.
Being pornography is… tangential, sort of. But part of what makes OF and all those other services so addictive is the way they’re structured. Living on your phone, pinging you, targeted personalized offers, FOMO, and engineering the app to form parasocial relationships in particular.
That’s different than randomly watching porn on the Internet, IMO.
One other common factor is the “primal” addictiveness hook, e.g. gambling, food craving, or the draw of porn.
If you’re an addict, gambling will prey on you.
