    In 2022, there were 608,601 reports of child exploitation on Omegle to the nonprofit National Center for Missing and Exploited Children’s CyberTipline. Of all the sites the center tracked, only Facebook, Google, Instagram, and WhatsApp ranked higher.

    That’s a crazy high number. Especially for a live content platform which I assume can only ever have individual reports of live interactions?

        Would you like to share your story?
        Edit: I don’t know how the question sounded to you guys. My intention was to hear their events and hardships that they claimed they saw and even felt on omegle.

            I wanted to hear what they had to say. People report on stuff and do journalism. Oh, well. I’ve been labeled and shamed already good bye

              This c/Technology community is incredibly toxic. Don’t let this instance get to you too much. I didn’t read your comment that way. Maybe a bit short and direct and unclear, but nothing worth downvoting for.

      If there are four that are worse, “only” seems out of place on that sentence.

        I was surprised by that too. It also minimizes the sheer amount of users on those platforms. We’re talking billions of people if not nearly every single person in the world.

        How many daily users did Omegle have?

        This site says 3.35 million daily active users.

        I guess having so many fewer users made Omegle a bigger problem, proportionally.
