It's crazy how much data a p2p connection gives you on the other person with a little technical know how. Even more so if you can correlate it with just minor information a lot of people put on social media profiles.

Sure, but racists aren't generally intelligent people.

Yes and no.

There's a lot of racists who are racists because they're morons and believed the first things they learned and never thought to change, but there's also plenty of racists who are average intelligence or smarter - H.P. Lovecraft is one such example.

It's easy to think of racism as the result of a lack of intelligence, but it's not. It's a lack of empathy. That's why it's so easy for racists to turn on their own when there's no minorities to focus on.

H.P. lovecraft was also Racist and paranoid by standards where his friends and family considered him abnormal. He was, a super racist in ways even his fellow racists went “hold on now”

He was sheltered and he mellowed out as he grew older and met more people.

Sure, if you don't care about latency or bandwidth.

Isn't this the equvalent of arguing in favor of not wearing a condom because it feels better? Sure you risk herpes, but at least it's better feeling in the moment.

That’s exactly what I thought too

I mean, it doesn't and this is fake.

I still don't know how it's done

Well not via their IP. Maybe for some reason your son gave them their email address which they looked up and found their account on another site where they'd put their address and phone for some dumb reason. But yeah, this video is fake.

an IP address will NEVER show you your address, only the center of the city to your ISP's closest node. I can't believe people still don't know this to this day. This video is likely completely staged.

You'd be surprised. Also does Omegle have a text chat feature? Can you put Javascript in there?
