The games were mentioned in a 2024 report and are now part of a new lawsuit in which a 11 year old girl was allegedly groomed and sexually assaulted after meeting a stranger on Roblox.

    Roblox is the absolute worst thing for kids.

    All my kid’s friends are on it so I feel bad not allowing them to use it, but there’s no way to set it up that doesn’t allow them to access these horrible experiences without also blocking access to pretty much every normal experience.

    The devs are allowed to set their own maturity level so this experience probably has the same maturity as Grow a Garden.

    So I have to just constantly monitor it and manually block inappropriate stuff, but there’s a limit of 200 for blocking which I’ve already hit. It’s the worst.

      well it isn’t so much about copyright as it is about protecting kids. Is there an AI voice thing related to child predators that I am not aware about?
