Comment on Roblox is a problem — but it’s a symptom of something worse
SSUPII@sopuli.xyz 5 weeks agoWhile I agree with everything, I think this is more about fearing parents remove their children from the platform by knowing about the issue.
What probably needs to happen is them receiving an actually global scandal.

I think caregivers and children should definitely sit down and talk about it. Roblox is, for many reasons a predatory company. Just like most capitalists they don’t actually care about people, especially children. This has been shown not in their lacklustre response to paedophiles, but also in their use of child labour to make them richer. Which they then do not compensate the children for fairly.
Agreed, that might help, I really really want Roblox gone, or controlled by those that actual utilise it for it’s allegedly intended purpose. The youth do need places online where they can be safe until what I talked above is implemented, sadly it seems nothing commercial is actually the way to do it, given the repeated reports of poor mental health, predatory behaviour etc coming from so called ‘child spaces’ on commercial platforms.
