MODERATORS
U r aware that until e2ee and online anonymity exists, pedos WILL be active online? Forget e2ee. Every social network (including Lemmy, Matrix, Mastodon) has an active pedo userbase.
There is absolutely no way to completely censor pedos. Hence, the only thing that we can do is educate children about consensual sex, rape, etc.. Basically something like a vaccination against sexual assault. It wouldn't work every time, but it would at least statistically reduce the probability of child sexual abuse. Unfortunately, this is all that we can do.
Snapchat is e2ee from what I understand. How are they supposed to monitor what goes on there? I'm unaware of the Chaturbate platform. As for Omegle, look at the sheer amount of users. How exactly were they supposed to block every single dick that popped up? It's a problem of the registration-less, anonymous chat model rather than Omegle itself.
Bro, you need therapy, you're wayyy too invested in this
