Creator monetization platform Passes sued over alleged distribution of CSAM


Passes, a direct-to-fan monetization platform for creators backed by $40 million in Series A funding, has been sued for allegedly distributing Child

Rosenblum further alleges that Guo intervened to personally override safety measures within Passes that she claims would have flagged her content as CSAM (child sexual abuse material). The company is not marketed as an OnlyFans rival, instead working with mainstream celebrities such as NBA legend Shaquille O’Neil, NCAA gymnast Olivia Dunne, and record producer Kygo. Passes says it uses the industry-standard tool Microsoft PhotoDNA to automatically scan all images for CSAM, which would then be reported to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC), as is typical protocol for online platforms.
