What ways could've headed off abuse thar wouldn't have defeated the entire purpose of the service - matching random people with each other?
- yawpitch 3y agoAge verifying every user and not allowing children on the service at all, or only matching children with children, as an obvious first. Alternatively, maybe just randomly sampling video feeds and running them through an ML classifier to see if, I dunno, “adult male penis” was a high probability on one side and “extremely uncomfortable looking child” was a high probability on the other? In hindsight the entire purpose of the service was a bad idea, absent minimal efforts to avoid its trivial weaponization by users with an obvious motive for using the means and opportunity the service was providing by design.
- rockskon 3y agoSo one of your solutions to a service aimed at randomly match anonymous people is to get rid of anonymity? I asked you how do you solve the problem without defeating the purpose of Omegle. Your solution is the equivalent to someone asking how to solve world hunger and you responding with "Just feed them. Duh."
