IANAL, but having a certain reputation is not enough. If you run a site where the mean time before penis is 30 seconds, you probably have to be upfront about that and promote it as a sex chat place, not "Talk to strangers! The Internet is full of cool people; Omegle lets you meet them. When you use Omegle, we pick someone else at random so you can have a one-on-one chat." (cut&pasted from Omegle).

But it wasn’t a “sex chat place.” It was a place to talk to random people on the internet. It’s common sense that encounters with dangerous people are possible when engaging with random internet strangers. It bothers me that we live in a world that is forced to cater to the lowest possible denominator. In this case we’re talking about a single instance in 14 years of service. If we live in a world that forces every service to provably cause no harm to every single human being on the planet, then we’re going to end up with the most meaningless drivel conceivable. And for the most part, we’re already well on our way towards realizing this dystopian cultural nightmare.
