    Like, I don’t really care one way or another, but are we not on Omegle’s side on this one?

    Like, yes, Omegle was a cess pit. We all knew that. It was basically 4chan with video chat. But, like, this case seems like a parenting failure more than anything, right?

    I don’t know that I see why this is Omegle’s fault really, and it’s kinda dumb they had to shut down over it.
