"The developer stated that parents should monitor their children on the platform '24/7,' emphasizing that if they cannot do so, children should not be playing Roblox."
"Roblox's spokesperson asserted that 'safety is a top priority,' highlighting the advanced safeguards and filters designed to prevent harmful content and communications."
"The independent developer expressed concern that the safety measures described by Roblox's chief safety officer do not accurately represent the platform's reality."
An independent game developer for Roblox believes the platform's child safety measures, including age verification, are inadequate. He advises parents to supervise their children continuously while using Roblox. The platform, popular among children aged eight to twelve, has advanced safety features, but the developer claims they do not reflect the reality of user safety. Roblox reported over 80 million daily players in 2024, with a significant portion under 13. The developer, who remains anonymous, has firsthand experience with the platform's safety issues.
