Roblox平台再次成为儿童安全倡导者关注的焦点，面临一项新的诉讼，指控该平台“为了利润牺牲儿童安全”。路易斯安那州总检察长指控Roblox“明知故犯”地未能实施“基本安全控制”，将年轻玩家暴露于掠夺性行为和儿童性虐待材料。总检察长还声称，Roblox未能充分警告家长其子女在平台上可能面临的危险。此前的法律行动和媒体报道也曾指出Roblox在保护儿童方面存在不足，尽管平台已引入了年龄验证、阻止工具和家长监控等新安全功能。

⚖️ **Roblox被指控牺牲儿童安全以追求利润**：路易斯安那州总检察长提起诉讼，指控Roblox平台未能实施基本的安全控制，导致儿童玩家面临掠夺性行为和儿童性虐待材料的风险，并认为平台此举是为了经济利益而罔顾儿童福祉。

🚫 **平台内容和安全控制的漏洞**：诉讼中提到，Roblox平台上存在“淫秽垃圾”的游戏世界，并列举了“逃往爱泼斯坦岛”和“公共淋浴”等令人不安的例子。总检察长还批评平台缺乏有效的年龄验证政策，使得掠夺者更容易接触儿童。

🛡️ **Roblox的安全改进措施与质疑**：面对日益增长的儿童安全担忧，Roblox已推出一系列安全功能，包括阻止工具、家长监督和消息控制，并引入了基于自拍的年龄验证。然而，此次诉讼表明，这些措施的有效性仍受到质疑，尤其是在年龄验证方面。

⚖️ **与其他科技巨头的安全挑战相似**：Roblox面临的儿童安全问题并非孤例，Meta、TikTok和Snapchat等其他社交媒体平台也因对青少年在线安全和心理健康的担忧而面临类似的法律行动和公众监督。

📜 **Roblox支持的行业性安全法案**：Roblox近期参与支持了“Take It Down Act”法案，该法案旨在建立非经同意的亲密图像（包括深度伪造）的下架政策和惩罚措施，显示出平台在推动行业安全标准方面的努力。

Roblox is once again the target of online child safety advocates, as it faces another lawsuit that claims the platform is "choosing profits over child safety."

The lawsuit, file by Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill, alleges the platform has "knowingly and intentionally" failed to institute "basic safety controls" that have exposed young players to predatory behavior and child sex abuse materials. Murrill also alleges the platform has failed to properly warn parents of potential dangers children face when playing Roblox.

In a series of tweets posted to X, Murrill claimed the platform was "perpetuating violence against children and sexual exploitation for profit" and called many of the site's gaming worlds, which are built by users and played by millions of children around the world, "obscene garbage." Murrill also posted several images of what were allegedly publicly available game experiences hosted on the platform, including "Escape to Epstein Island" and "Public Showers." Similar legal actions have been taken against other popular social media platforms — including Meta, TikTok, and Snapchat — amid growing concern for youth online safety and mental health.

Roblox has been on a mission to reform its image following a series of reports claiming the online gaming site is dangerous for young children, allegedly because it failed to curb a network of predatory adult users. In 2023, a class action lawsuit was filed against the platform on behalf of parents, claiming the company falsely advertised its site as safe for children.

Since then, Roblox has introduced a swath of new safety features, including extensive blocking tools, parental oversight, and messaging controls. The platform recently introduced selfie-based age verification for teen players — in the lawsuit, Murrill claims a lack of age verification policies makes it easier for predators to interact with children on the platforms. Earlier this year, the platform joined other social media companies backing the newly passed Take It Down Act, which establishes takedown policies and repercussions for publishing non-consensual intimate imagery, including deepfakes.
