Enough Is Enough^® Calls For Parents To #Rethinkroblox Gift Cards For Holidays
 

“Instead of rewarding Roblox, a platform that enables predators to contact children, we are urging parents to #RethinkRoblox gift cards this holiday season,” said Donna Rice Hughes, President and CEO, Enough Is Enough^®.

“Roblox is facing over 35 lawsuits for failing to protect children. Roblox needs to proactively end the sexual exploitation of children, but if and until it does so, parents should avoid contributing to the company’s profits. This will send a strong message to the company that it is time to prioritize safety so that predators can no longer have access to our children,” added Hughes.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton recently filed a lawsuit against Roblox “for flagrantly ignoring state and federal online safety laws while deceiving parents about the dangers of its platform.”

A Guardian journalist recently reported that she spent time on Roblox logged in as a child and her avatar was “cyberbullied, aggressively killed, and sexually assaulted” while parental controls were in place. Hindenburg Research reported that its “in-game research revealed an X-rated pedophile hellscape, exposing children to grooming, pornography, violent content and extremely abusive speech.”
