there wasn't just one the key. the creator had employed so called checked us to message fence on her behalf, even though her bios said otherwise. this isn't a rare case. it can happen to use us across the world where only fence is available is only fence supporting a fraudulent system. only sans has become a huge the profitable business. it has over 200000000 uses 87 percent of them, a man. they spend billions of us on the platform, but for most creators, it's not easy money. the top 10 percent and 73 percent off. the total income, it's a competitive market in many professionals already caching it. big agencies support create us taking a share of the income. it's typical monthly subscription to a known defense account costs about 7 year olds. the real money comes from exclusive content and other services that use us pay for via only funds tipping
