Owing to the anonymity that Omegle aims to provide to users, they are quick to ban users who share nudity or engage in pornographic activities. Omegle is an online social platform that was launched in 2009.
Is Omegle ban permanent?
The platform originally only provided users with a text-chat feature up until 2010 when the video-chat feature was introduced. The incredible thing about Omegle is that its users are not required to register or undertake any form of verification before accessing the platform.
Omegle gained mass popularity during the COVID_19 lockdown as more people resorted to the platform to make friends with strangers from other parts of the world.
The online platform identifies its users based on their IP address. Although Omegle does don’t have user information it can restrict users based on their IP address.
An IP address is a special number assigned to devices that are internet accessible and without it, they can`t receive and send data on the internet.
Users can be restricted from Omegle for a week up to 120 days in some instances. Users can also be banned permanently based on their offence. Omegle bans any users who violate the terms of service by using both human moderators and automatic blocking tools.
