Ethan Dallas was targeted by an adult sexual predator on Roblox when he was 12, and later on Discord, according to a lawsuit. He took his own life last year.
Roblox said it is designed with “rigorous built in safety features” and is “continually innovating new safety features — over 100 this year alone — that protect our users and empower parents and caregivers with greater control and visibility.”
The fact that they are framing it in this manner “100 features in this year alone” (what does this even mean?) suggests that they don’t care.
I couldn’t even name a hundred safety features. Ten would be enough. Age gate, parental controls, moderators, a report function… What more does it need?

If you could pump out 100 features in 1 year, how little were they doing before??
The parental options don’t do a fucking thing. The game’s predatory by design (in every meaning of the word)…

“No one in the history of games has cared this much!”
But now they know blatant bullshit lies generally work pretty well on our population so expect more of this crap.
