Look get the feeling of talking to people anonymously on the Internet but we aren’t going to turn to robots because a video service shut down.
Fuck platforms like Omegle. Until their are better ways of restricting behavior that harms minors on platforms like Omegle I will take this as an opportunity to say, “time to move one.”
EDIT: Didn’t think this comment would open up this many issues. It is clear that Lemmy blames parents for not knowing what their child is doing 24/7 because apparently parents should know everything their child is doing. What an ideal world. I still stand by the previous statement. Fuck Omegle and fuck anyone who thinks their isn’t an issue with child predators and Omegle and the abuse that has gone in their for years.
Let’s not forget SSSniperwolfs video of asking 16 year olds to flash on Omegle and monetizing that on YouTube.
You’re exactly the kind of person who would beg to shut down central park because someone got mugged there, just like he talks about in the article, which you clearly didn’t read.
You don’t need to read the article if you’ve ever been to omegle even once. Just because you’re desensitized to a bunch if dudes jacking off, doesn’t mean we should be. fuck omegle.
Reading the article it sounded more like he was tired of dealing with people who hated on the platform - like you.
They had moderators working full time and numerous protections in place (including AI that detected nudity). They actually led to the arrest of many paedophiles and had numoerous contacts with international law enforcement and child protection agencies.
If you read the article you’d see he was more ruined by the people screeching it needs to be shut down because it was a nest of paedos. People who’d probably never fucking used the site (like you) who’d just heard rumours (like you) and had no fucking clue about the moderation and arrests that went on in the background.
Guess what - paedos will always fucking exist. If anything Omegle was a honeypot for the stupid few who thought they could use it and get away with it only to find out they couldn’t and got arrested.
Instead now paedos will go elsewhere. More underground. Harder to find. Harder to catch.
Congratulations. You’re ignorant pearl clutching is precisely what the site admin couldn’t deal with anymore and you’ve made paedos harder to catch in the act.
If your child has access to a stream of cocks that is a failure of the parents and not Omegle. You know Pornhub exists? Typing “dick” into Google is a thing?
Didn’t Omegle have issues with child porn.
“Genuine human connection.”

How did you get from child porn that harms minors to dudes jacking off? That’s not the same or equivalent.
Play stupid harder, pedo
Oh no, not the children!
Wouldn’t be an issue if parents properly monitored the kid’s Internet access.

There’s child porn on the internet. Let’s ban the entire internet to stop it.
At least then I won’t have to read your dumb thoughts anymore.

You. You’re the problem. You’re what’s wrong with the internet.

A single member of a collective doesn’t get to speak for the colective.
You see these little up and down arrows? They seem to indicate who is speaking for the collective or not.

You already admitted you don’t even know anything about the site, your opinion is invalid. Thanks for playing.

I hope you’re proud.
Nah, fuck Omegle.

Pearl clutching and wanting to protect children from a sea of (practically unmoderated) naked cocks is not the same thing you absolute thundercunt.
If your child has access to a stream of cocks that is a failure of the parents and not Omegle. You know Pornhub exists? Typing “dick” into Google is a thing?
Then why are you talking about it? Why come here just to spew completely uniformed conjecture?

Why are you so vehemently defending a well known distribution point for pedophelia?
Do you see how little good rhetorical questions do?
