Cam4.com (stylized CAM4), is a French live streaming website featuring live performances by primarily amateur performers. Streams on Cam4 often feature nudity and sexual activity. In 2020, Wired reported[2] that Cam4's production server did not have a password set in their ElasticSearch instance, a common security mistake, which may have exposed user information.

Concept
Cam4 is used mostly by amateur performers who stream video and audio.[citation needed] Customers can purchase virtual tokens, which can be used to tip performers or pay for private shows.[citation needed] Customers can use live text chat in each performer's "room" or to communicate directly to each other.[citation needed] Cam4 has paid out more than $100m in performer commissions since its inception in 2007.[3]
