Leonid Radvinsky's death leaves a void in the leadership of OnlyFans, a platform that has transformed the adult content landscape. His secretive management style and the controversies surrounding the site have raised questions about its future direction and stability.
When I was working at Magic Leap, and people asked me why I thought that was a good idea, I would ask the rhetorical question: "do you really think that twenty years from now everyone is still going to be going around all day staring at little rectangles in their hands?"
