Chatroulette To Log IP Addresses, Take Screenshots

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the price-of-fame dept.

littlekorea writes "Chatroulette, the strangely addictive online game in which users are connected via webcam and microphone to random strangers at the click of a button, has had enough of users exposing themselves to the unsuspecting public, among other disgraces. The founder of Chatroulette has announced the company has hired developers to collect IP addresses and take screenshots of those users breaking the rules."

    Do you really think any law enforcement agency has the resources to investigate thousands of complaints with little more than a screenshot of someone's junk and their IP address?

    Maybe if the IP address resolved to Whitehouse.gov. Don't you miss Bill Clinton?

    Personally I've used the service precisely once. Discovering what happened during that usage is left as an exercise to the reader.

    You told a 13 year old girl to show boobs?

    That just doesn't say a whole lot about Bill's stamina.

    Yep, and if you violate them you can be sent to cyber jail.
