1. What is Patreon?
Ans:
2. What is OnlyFans?
Ans:
OnlyFans is an online streaming platform and app created in 2016 where
users can pay for private content (photos, videos, and live streams) with a
monthly subscription. Fitness trainers, models, public figures, and
other “content creators” use the platform to grow and monetize their fan
base. But unlike YouTube, Instagram, or Snapchat, OnlyFans allows explicit
sexual content. Because OnlyFans is by subscription only, content creators
can share nude photos of themselves, live stream pornographic videos, and
even virtually interact with their subscribers. Effectively, OnlyFans is live
porn. But it is also so much more than that. The platform has become
increasingly popular for people who have become unemployed during the
pandemic, but it is also popular among sex workers. With a subscription,
anyone can find and view sex workers and pornographic actors without ever
visiting a porn site. This makes OnlyFans especially dangerous for kids.

5. What is Sextortion?
Ans:
Sextortion is a form of extortion that involves the use of sexually explicit
material, such as images or videos, to coerce someone into performing
certain actions, usually involving the payment of money or providing
additional explicit content. The term is a combination of "sex" and
"extortion."
Sextortion is a serious and illegal form of online harassment and can have
severe emotional, psychological, and financial consequences for the victims.
Law enforcement agencies worldwide are working to combat sextortion and
prosecute those responsible for engaging in such criminal activities. It is
crucial for individuals to be cautious about sharing intimate content online
and to report any instances of sextortion to the appropriate authorities.
4. Contact the police: Report the incident to your local police station. You can
visit the police station in person or file a complaint online if your local police
department provides such a service. Provide them with all the evidence you
have collected.
5. Contact the Cyber Crime Cell: In many cases of sextortion, the cyber crime
cell or cyber crime unit of the police department handles such matters. You may
need to provide detailed information about the incident, including the nature of
the threats and the evidence you have.
6. National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal: You can also file a complaint on the
National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal (https://www.cybercrime.gov.in/)
provided by the Ministry of Home Affairs. This portal allows you to report
cybercrimes online.
7. Seek legal advice: Consult with a legal professional to understand your rights
and get guidance on the legal actions you can take against the perpetrator.
Remember that prompt reporting is crucial in such cases. The police and cyber
crime units can take appropriate action to investigate and track down the
culprits. Additionally, seeking support from friends, family, or counseling
services can help you cope with the emotional distress caused by sextortion.

guide the victim on the appropriate legal actions and initiate an investigation

8. What are the five most common fetishes people seek online?
Ans:
It's important to note that people's interests and preferences can vary widely,
and what individuals seek online can be influenced by personal factors, cultural
differences, and individual tastes. However, some fetishes are known to be
relatively common and frequently sought online. Keep in mind that the
prevalence and popularity of fetishes can change over time. As of my
knowledge cutoff in January 2022, some common fetishes include:
1. Foot Fetish: This involves a strong attraction to feet. Some people find feet
sexually arousing and may enjoy activities such as foot massage, toe-sucking, or
foot worship.
9. List the top five dating / flirting apps for both Android and iPhone with
theirfeatures.
Ans:
1. Tinder (Android; iOS)The app displays singles in your area. If you like
someone's profile, swipe the photo to the right; otherwise, swipe to the left. If
you both swipe right, you can send messages and set something up. Upgrading
to a paid Plus or Gold membership at Tinder gives you premium features like
unlimited likes or rewinds that give would-be partners a second chance. If you
know how to use Tinder's premium tiers, you can also change the location you
want your profile to appear in.Tinder continues to tinker with its formula,
rolling out a video feature that allows you to make in-app video calls to matches
without exchanging personal details. A Safety Center feature ties into Noonlight
app and provides a panic button in case you wind up on a date where you feel
unsafe, and you can run background checks based on data from public records.
Tinder may even add a "swipe party" feature that lets your friends join in on the
fun of helping pick out a would-be partner for you.
2. Bumble (Android; iOS)Women get to make the first move after two people
mutually connect and are part of each other’s hive. From there, you've got just
24 hours to make some kind of contact or the connection disappears. For same-
sex connections or friendships, either person has to make a move within 24
hours before that connection is gone, though you can get a 24-hour extension.
When it comes to forging friendships, Bumble has a BFF feature for people who
are not looking for dates and a separate section for making business contacts.
The Bumble Boost upgrade, which ranges from $2.99 to $8.99, makes it easier
and faster to meet or date people. Bumble added video a couple years ago,
giving one of the best dating apps a leg up in the shelter-in-place era. A Night In
addition added games starting with a trivia game to give you and your date
something to do on your video chat.
