Roblox commits to privacy overhaul after eSafety discovers adults can contact children

Roblox has committed to a privacy overhaul after Australia's eSafety commissioner discovered significant safety vulnerabilities allowing adults to contact children without parental consent. The regulator found that adults could view child accounts, send connection requests, and interact with minors on forums outside the game environment. The company has provided a legal agreement to implement verifiable safety measures deemed critical to the platform's viability.
