The County of Los Angeles filed suit today against social media gaming platform Roblox alleging that the platform failed to protect children from predatory behavior. The lawsuit alleges that while Roblox markets itself as a safe digital space for creativity, it is in reality an unsafe online environment that has become a breeding ground for predators.
I think there is a case to be made that platforms need to employ a certain ratio of background-checked moderators if the users are potentially vulnerable.
This is the law irl in classrooms etc. So what if your platform is “too large”, that’s your lookout. And it’s why we don’t fill stadiums full of unsupervised children.
Bad analogy.
