Omegle was super popular worldwide, it’s one of the “first generation” internet social platforms, back from the age when people got really impressed by the possibilities of the web.

Basically, Omegle is a platform where you chat with random people using your webcam. It’s like a Google Meet or Skype call, but the website randomly assigns you to somebody else, and you can choose to skip and move on to the next person as soon as you wish.

So you can be browsing and suddenly you’re talking to a Brazilian guitar player, and then a maths professor, and then two shy teenagers screaming, and then a dude in a Star Wars costume, and so on.

As you might imagine hearing “random people with their webcam turned on” Omegle was a place filled, and I do mean filled, with naked people. Mostly man. The design of website would start conversation with the camera turned on, meaning you’d be flashed with a dick before even being able to react.

It’s also infamous for a lot of child porn.
