The actual abuse occurred on Discord after the child was groomed on Roblox.

Yeah, my point is that it is just a communication tool. I wouldn't expect them, or want them, to monitor that. If they had been phone calls would they be going after the phone company? If it had been letters would they go after the postal service?

I can't see blaming them. Whereas I can see how you can blame roblocks as it is marketed to children with the pretense that there are safeguards.
