Louisiana Sues Roblox Over Child Safety Concerns
Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill has initiated a child protection lawsuit against Roblox, alleging the platform facilitates sexual exploitation and endangers minors. The suit claims Roblox enables the distribution of child sexual abuse material, lacks adequate safety controls, and withholds vital risk warnings from users. Murrill highlighted the presence of explicit content within some games on the platform and cited cases in Louisiana linked to Roblox-based interactions. The lawsuit demands restitution, damages, and attorney fees, while urging significant platform changes or shutdown, due to a lack of age verification and similar safeguards.
