What Is the Roblox Litigation?
Roblox is an online gaming and social platform used by millions of children worldwide.
Lawsuits filed against Roblox Corporation allege that the platform failed to implement
adequate safeguards to protect minors from sexual exploitation, grooming, and abuse by
other users.
These claims assert that Roblox knew or should have known about ongoing risks to children
but failed to take reasonable steps to prevent harm, despite marketing the platform as safe
for young users.
Background:
Roblox allows users to interact through avatars, chat features, and user-generated games.
While the platform includes moderation tools and safety policies, multiple lawsuits allege
that these measures were insufficient or inconsistently enforced.
Parents and guardians claim that predators were able to exploit in-game chat, private messaging,
and social features to target minors. As a result, numerous lawsuits across the United States
have been filed alleging negligence, failure to warn, and inadequate child-safety protections.
