Growing list of companies taking a stance against Russia

Published

on

Another major company has taken a stance against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine

Onlyfans has temporarily suspended the accounts of Russian content creators.

The move has left many creators like sex workers out of income.

Until now, Russian creators have been allowed to remain on the platform.

In February, Rolling Stone reported that Russian OnlyFans creators briefly lost access to their accounts with little warning but the access was then granted once again.

Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Russian content creators have quickly begun losing access to popular online services.

Major corporate organisations have also continued to block, suspend or cease operations in Russia

Wall Street enters 2026 optimistic as falling interest rates and strong earnings drive stock market expectations amid economic resilience.


Wall Street is entering 2026 with renewed confidence as falling interest rates and robust corporate earnings lift expectations for continued stock market gains. Analysts say an easier monetary policy is providing fresh momentum for equities after several strong years.

The US economy has continued to show resilience, with businesses maintaining healthy balance sheets and earnings growth holding up despite global uncertainty. Lower borrowing costs and supportive fiscal settings are expected to further boost investor sentiment.

However, market watchers remain cautious, warning that optimism could fade quickly if economic data disappoints or inflation pressures return.
