[QUOTE="Jesus, post: 1511396, member: 16999"]We all are aware of how easy it is to be confronted with pedophilia on Omegle. I recently did my personal investigation on how easy it is when you put certain "interests" in the box and click the text chat option. It's all pedophiles trading CP links. It's disgusted me. There's really no way to flag them for innappropriate material (They're dropbox links) so after my investigation I decided to e-mail the owner of Omegle, Leif K Brooks and give a simple suggestion to block certain keywords from being entered in the interest box. Seemed like it would be a simple suggestion in order to prevent this type of thing going on. Obviously it wouldn't eradicate the pedophile problem on Omegle but surely would have made their activities harder to do. They do it brazenly in the open ya know? Well I e-mailed him several times about it on his admin email [email protected] which I had to search hard for. I wouldn't think his e-mail box would be flooded but he never replied back. Looking on the internet, I was curious as to who this owner of Omegle really was. I found postings from him on 4chan (he even provided proof that it was in fact him) where he tried convincing a girl who looked noticably underage to de-robe herself. That disturbed me a little. If this owner of the website truly wanted to protect it's users, he would take every possible step to do so.....yet some obvious simple changes he could take are simply not being put forward....simply ignored. I'm actually disgusted by that. I would LOVE to be able to report these pedophiles myself but I don't want to get involved with investigations and **** like that. If there were an anonymous way to do so I would do it.

Putting this here because I wanted to share it with you all. This has been going on for years but nobody's publically spoken up about it. We all know what's been going on but there's just no crackdown on it. Omegle keeps the IP records but I have yet to find cases where they've actually turned over the information of suspected pedophiles to the FBI directly. In all of my news searches, there was only one case and it was someone broadcasting innappropriate material over video chat that they just so happened to catch.


Shouldn't website owners take an equal responsibility to their users if they see upfront something inappropriate going on? I highly doubt Leif K Brooks, the owner of Omegle, is ignorant about what the majority of Omegle users do on his website.[/QUOTE]

Sorry to hear that, but I don't think the destruction of any one particular site will do any good.

Whoa whoa whoa slow down there lady. I'm not a victim of anything that happened on omegle myself. I don't even think I have the possibility of being able to help you either. This thread is ages old and it was a discovery I made about how Omegle is crawling with pedophiles. Anyone can go on there and be confronted by them at any given minute. They feel safety with the anonymity. I don't have any information. It's common knowledge at this point that Omegle isn't a safe site. Omegle clearly states on the front page that nobody under the age of 13 can use the moderated section and that nobody under the age of 18 should go on the unmoderated section. I feel sympathy for whatever may have happened to your daughter of course. I do have to say though that a nine year old girl certainly should have her internet monitored. This is a video game forum. I cannot help you personally. Omegle holds information for 90 days until it is trashed unless it has been flagged and turned over to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children or if they are subpoenaed. I have no information or actual proof that Leif K Brooks is a pedophile. I read about it on some site long ago that I cannot remember. The only thing I can say at this point for you is to start monitoring what your child is doing on the internet. If your daughter's life is being ruined by some pedophile she met on Omegle then you should turn over any contact that he/she may have had with her outside of Omegle. Websites usually store data for 120 days then delete it. If it's been as long as you say then the proof of your daughter meeting some pedophile on Omegle is long gone. The only advice I can give to you dear is to start monitoring your child's internet. The internet is a dangerous place for someone so young.
