WARNING⚠️

Omegle is an app and a website and last week there was a lot of reporting in regards to a surge in usage, particularly teens and younger children. The BBC have reported that they carried out an investigation and found a significant amount of disturbing content. The BBC article can be read following this link Omegle: Children expose themselves on video chat site - BBC News
Omegle has been around for many years, it isn't new and there have always been significant concerns. It is and always has been one of the most despicable sites. If you don't know what it is, essentially it's a place which openly advertises 'come in and talk to a stranger'. You simply click a button and you are randomly placed in a video chat room with a completely random person. There's no age verification, no warnings and it's doubtful whether there is any meaningful moderation.

It has increased in popularity because certain high-profile influencers have been talking about it on TikTok. According to the news report, videos tagged with Omegle have been viewed on TikTok more than 9.4 billion times thereby raising interest/curiosity.

Please tell your child or children of the dangers.
