I have an idea of building a random video chat webapp, similar to omegle, chatroulette, coomeet and so on. I assume it can be used for streaming adult content live, the very same way as what webcam sites do, but in a more informal way - a model on one side, a viewer on the other side, just a private p2p video call. An extra layer is bidirectional donations via crypto. Model and viewer can swap their roles any moment and donate either way, not just from the viewer to performer.<p>By looking at sites like omegle I don't see strict rules for those who show themselves via the camera. There are some warnings about forbidden illegal activities which you easily pass by clicking a button like "I am 18 or older and agree with all you have".<p>However, when I look at webcam sites, like Jasmin, Chaturbate or others, I see that there are usually two strict and clear categories of users - performers and models. And here, if a user wants to be a performer, she or he needs to go through a verification/kyc process, get approved and only then can start streaming.<p>I asked on some industry-related forums about what's the legal and ethical difference in these approaches and users which are webcam models say, that they want a random video chat webapp to work with to be like webcam sites - have verification process, clear rules for performers, e.g. payout timings, commissions, personal data and personal life safety (geolocation restrictions for viewers) and so on.<p>As I don't want to turn this webapp into an old-fashioned webcam platform (I am experimenting and hope it can be used in some other way than just adult entertainment), I wonder, how much from webcam platforms should I adopt from webcam sites in regards for legal, ethical and user support stuff? Currently the most important is legal one but I hope to build a strong supportive service for my users so other aspects matter too.<p>Please share your thoughts.<p>Thanks!
