    The headline is misleading. The full quote from the CEO is

    My first message would be, if you’re not comfortable, don’t let your kids be on Roblox.

    That should just be common sense.

    Who else is supposed to be on Roblox … ? Doesn’t really strike me as a popular game with teenagers or adults.

        They’re doing a great job getting kids addicted to gambling on that platform.

            See also: kids who play Fortnite and have no concept of how much the stupid skins they want actually cost (hint: it’s outrageous) :/

              Fortnight is the one that always comes to mind. There’s stories here of bullying in school over fortnight skins.

    The Director of Public Policy and U.S. State Strategies at Roblox Corporation once said that creating sexual drawings or 3D renderings of real children is “too attenuated” to be worrisome or illegal.
    He also argued in court that it’s okay for states to anally penetrate and otherwise torture children in their care, because protections against cruel and unusual punishment don’t apply to children.
    So I’m not sure Roblox is that concerned about child safety.
