Roblox will make further changes to how its large audience of children interact with others on the platform, in response to growing safety fears.
Roblox will make further changes to how its large audience of children interact with others on the platform, in response to growing safety fears. The latest steps include a ban on users aged under 13 being able to access social hangout experiences in Roblox, beginning later this month. Now, children will be further restricted from accessing social hangouts - which Roblox describes as "things like vibe games, clubs, socialising and supportive spaces where the primary theme or purpose of the experience is to communicate (e.g. in text or voice chat) with other users as yourself" - as well as in "free-form user creation" where users can draw in 2D or write without this text going through Roblox moderation.
