ISD’s Anna Hiller spoke to CORRECTIV about these profiles and the goals behind them. Anna explains it is “hard to say whether the profiles are intended to advertise the AfD or are rather a bait to lure people who sympathize with the right-wing spectrum to paid sites such as Onlyfans.”

She added that the content shares similarities with material ISD has previously analyzed from far-right actors.
