The Internet has revolutionized our lives, including the way we approach sexuality. From dating sites to online pornography, the Web offers access to a wide range of practices, communities and ways of being. The development of an increasingly fast connection, the democratization of computer tools and the appearance of platforms specially dedicated to online sex, where each user can broadcast the content of his or her choice in exchange for a fee for each act performed, has allowed everyone to broadcast their intimacy online. Whether it's a matter of amateurs or sex workers for whom it is the main activity, sex camming has developed strongly over the last ten years. However, the practice raises many questions. Whether it is about the platforms on which these practices and this work take place, the definition and the boundaries of online sex work, gender differences or the staging of intimacy, camgirls and camboys work raises question about our societies. These are questions that academic research has been trying to answer for a long time now, and that this scientific review will try to account for.
