TikTok is once again updating its livestreaming features, and this time the biggest improvements affect the people who can’t watch. For starters, the upgrade now lets TikTok Live users host adult-only broadcasts. If a stream is likely to include lots of colorful language or tackle traumatic subjects, you can make sure the audience is mature enough to handle it. The option will be available in the “coming weeks.” And no, it’s not an officially sanctioned alternative to OnlyFans — TikTok’s policies still forbid sexually explicit content.
However, people are speculating that TikTok could soon turn into an OnlyFans alternative after the platform announced the new “adults only” feature for live broadcasting.
TikTok rose to huge popularity during the Covid-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns across the world. While its user base is mainly comprised of Gen Z, it appears to the app is hoping to draw more of an adult audience after announcing it’s raising the age of those who can live broadcast to adults and is introducing an adult-only viewer option.
According to the Chinese-owned platform, the new feature is being brought in to protect its younger users and could be used to stream comedy routines with strong language or broadcast videos with more complex or “difficult” subject matter. TikTok announced: “In the coming weeks, we plan to introduce a new way for creators to choose if they’d prefer to only reach an adult audience in their LIVE.
“For instance, perhaps a comedy routine is better suited for people over age 18. Or, a host may plan to talk about a difficult life experience and they would feel more comfortable knowing the conversation is limited to adults.
“We want our community to make the most of the opportunities LIVE can bring without compromising on safety.”

Diva Traffic: Traffic Services Shut Down on February 20, 2026
Everything is changing in the camming industry. As a clear example, after years of being known as a traffic company—especially for promotion within the adult cams space—2026 is the year the industry says goodbye to Diva Traffic!
Behind this exit is an announcement posted by the company under the headline “Important Service Update.” Diva Traffic stated that effective February 20, 2026, it will discontinue its operations, including all traffic purchase services. The platform also noted that all previously purchased tokens must be used to activate traffic boost campaigns by that date, and that as of today, token purchases and subscriptions are no longer available.
The shutdown closes the chapter on a brand that, for some, was a useful promotional tool—and for others, a recurring source of controversy. Over time, countless rumors circulated across studios and among models, with many in the community alleging the service relied heavily on bots, fake clicks, and non-human traffic rather than real users.
Whatever side of the debate people were on, the outcome is now the same: a familiar name in cam-focused traffic services is exiting the scene, and studios and creators will need to rethink and adjust their promotion strategies moving forward.
Reclaim The Net: Arizona HB 2920 Would Expand Age Checks to Preinstalled Apps
Arizona lawmakers are weighing a sweeping app-store age-verification proposal that would apply not only to app downloads but also to core phone functions most users take for granted, according to Reclaim The Net.
The measure, House Bill 2920, was introduced on January 27, 2026, and is pending before the Arizona House Science & Technology Committee. As described, the bill would require age checks for app store accounts and would also cover preinstalled software and built-in tools such as the web browser, text messaging app, search bar, calculator, and weather widget, effectively placing nearly every piece of mobile software under age-gating requirements.
How HB 2920 would work
Under the proposal, app store providers would be required to determine each account holder’s age category using “commercially available” verification methods. The bill, as reported, does not precisely define what verification methods would qualify, and it assigns the Arizona Attorney General the role of setting rules for acceptable processes.
HB 2920 would divide users into four groups:
Under 13
Ages 13–16
Ages 16–18
Adults
For anyone under 18, the bill would require the minor’s account to be “affiliated” with a parent account and mandate “verifiable parental consent” before a minor could download or purchase an app or make in-app purchases. Reclaim The Net notes that this consent framework would also extend to preinstalled apps, meaning the first time a minor attempts to open certain default phone functions, the system could require parent approval before access is granted.
A key issue raised in the coverage is that the bill does not specify how parent-child relationships will be verified. Instead, app stores would have wide discretion to determine parenthood via unspecified “commercially reasonable” methods.
Updates could trigger new consent requests
The bill’s scope would extend beyond initial access and downloads. If a developer makes a “significant change” to an application, the proposal would require renewed parental consent before the minor can access the updated version.
In the Reclaim The Net description, “significant change” would include:
Privacy policy modifications
Changes to categories of data collected
Age rating changes
Adding in-app purchases
Introducing advertisements
That could mean routine software maintenance becomes a gatekeeping event. A weather app that adds a banner ad, for example, could require fresh parental approval. A note-taking app’s privacy policy update could also trigger a new consent prompt before a minor can keep using it.
To make this system function, developers would be required to notify app stores of “significant changes,” while app stores would need to notify parent accounts and secure renewed permission before restoring access.
Penalties and lawsuits
Reclaim The Net reports that HB 2920 would include civil penalties up to $75,000 per violation, alongside a private right of action allowing parents and minors to sue for $1,000 per violation, plus potential punitive damages. The piece argues these provisions could increase compliance pressure on both app stores and developers.
Because consent status would need to be tracked, app stores would have to collect and maintain records tied to age categories, parental affiliations, verification records, and consent histories, and share age-category data with developers during downloads, purchases, or app launches. While the bill includes language around “industry standard encryption” and limiting data use to compliance purposes, it would still require extensive data collection and transmission to operate as designed.
Comparisons to other states and legal scrutiny
The coverage points to Texas as a recent example of similar legislation. Reclaim The Net notes that a federal judge blocked Texas’ law before it took effect, describing it as comparable to requiring every bookstore to verify every customer’s age and to require parental consent for minors to enter and buy books. The ruling found the law likely unconstitutional, concluding that it imposed content-based restrictions and failed strict scrutiny.
Arizona’s HB 2920 is framed as part of a broader state-level push toward app-store age verification. Reclaim The Net lists Texas, Utah, Louisiana, and California as states that have passed versions of these measures, with different effective dates and enforcement approaches.
HB 2920 is described as going further than most by explicitly covering preinstalled applications, raising the possibility that a minor could purchase a phone and be unable to use built-in tools until a parent account is established and consent is granted.
Proposed effective date
Reclaim The Net reports that if HB 2920 advances through the legislature, it would take effect on November 30, 2026, setting a compliance timeline for app stores and developers.
