# Omegle - Concerning Social Media App

With any social media there is a potential risk but this app is particularly concerning.  Omegle is a free online chat website that allows users to socialise with others without the need to register.  The service randomly pairs users in one-on-one chat sessions where they chat anonymously using the names "You" and "Stranger" or "Stranger 1" and "Stranger 2" in the case of Spy mode.

It is crucial that we share information with parents that we receive to enable children to stay safe online and to raise questions about what to do if you have a concern.
