The County of Los Angeles filed suit today against social media gaming platform Roblox alleging that the platform failed to protect children from predatory behavior. The lawsuit alleges that while Roblox markets itself as a safe digital space for creativity, it is in reality an unsafe online environment that has become a breeding ground for predators.

This lawsuit makes me feel extremely validated in my fight with my ex about not letting our kid play roblox unsupervised. Same with letting them use tiktok/youtube.

My kids can play roblox, but they can't use chat. They're also very limited in their social media priviliges. It's all cancerous and predatory. It's a shame society has decided that this is the new standard of communication, so I can't ban it completely.
