But is roblox facilitating and monetizing sexual predation?

This is, very unfortunately, what happens in every internet space which is targeted towards children and allows communication among users. It is by far the easiest way for anonymous predatory adults to make contact with typically unattended children. I would like at some point to see a child-oriented space on the internet have the highest priority of children’s safety at some point, but there hasn’t been one yet.

Definitely. They could do something about this but they would make less profit.

I mean I’m sure there’s been some… but well how popular would they be. I mean the long and short of how it has to be done… no private messages, all public messages heavily monitored. Which unfortunately isn’t a recipe for making a site popular with kids.
