Overview

• Attorney General Russell Coleman filed the case in Madison Circuit Court, alleging Roblox lacks effective age checks, robust content filters, and meaningful parental notifications in violation of the Kentucky Consumer Protection Act.
• The complaint seeks an injunction to force compliance in Kentucky and requests fines of up to $2,000 for each violation.
• Prosecutors cited recent incidents, including experiences depicting the killing of Charlie Kirk and reports of extremist sextortion groups, as evidence of broader safety gaps; Roblox has said it removed about 100 such games.
• Roblox disputed the allegations, pointing to 24/7 human moderation, AI detection systems, stricter defaults for users under 13, rigorous text filters, a ban on user-to-user image sharing, and new tools such as facial age estimation.
• Coleman said the goal is to make the service safer rather than shut it down and signaled openness to a settlement as Kentucky joins a growing slate of state and family lawsuits.
