Overview
- Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier called Roblox a breeding ground for predators and said his office is issuing criminal subpoenas to the company.
- Prosecutors allege adults impersonate children on the platform and, in some cases, use Robux to solicit sexually explicit images or personal information.
- Kentucky and Louisiana attorneys general, along with families, have filed suits, with reports citing more than 20 federal cases this year alleging negligence.
- Roblox says it deployed extensive 2025 safeguards, including facial‑recognition age verification and expanded chat monitoring, and reported 23,000 suspected incidents to NCMEC.
- The platform counts roughly 88.9 million daily users, about 40% under age 13, a scale critics say heightens the risks and complicates moderation.
