(Reuters) -Britain's media regulator Ofcom has opened an investigation into whether adults-only website OnlyFans is doing enough to prevent children accessing pornography on its platform, Ofcom said on Wednesday.

"Having reviewed submissions we received from OnlyFans in response to formal information requests, we have grounds to suspect the platform did not implement its age-verification measures in such a way as to sufficiently protect under-18s from pornographic material," the watchdog said.
