The adult platform, 'Phica', has announced its sudden closure following a wave of controversy. This decision comes after several center-left women politicians, actresses, and influencers voiced concerns about manipulated photos of them being posted on the site. The backlash has prompted Phica to take drastic action, leading to the removal of all content from the platform.
A screenshot from Phica's website revealed a message to users stating their commitment to removing content and encouraging people to report any violations. The forum's administrators issued a statement, emphasizing their swift action to eliminate any infringing material. "If your rights have been violated, please write to us so we can remove it," the announcement urged.
“Phica was created as a personal discussion and sharing platform, with a dedicated space for those who wanted to certify themselves and share their content in a safe environment.”
The administrators further lamented that like any social network, Phica was not immune to misuse, which ultimately contradicted its original purpose and spirit.
Interestingly, the site's name, 'Phica', rhymes with "fica" – a colloquial Italian term for vagina. This play on words hinted at its adult-themed content, yet it wasn't enough to shield it from controversy.
As the site shuts down, the ripple effects of its closure on the adult content community and its users remain to be seen. The situation underscores the ongoing challenges faced by platforms in managing user-generated content and maintaining the integrity of their intended purpose.
