Roblox is a popular online gaming platform where users create and share their own virtual 3D worlds. If chat is enabled, users can communicate with players of all ages on the platform, and therefore, younger children are highly likely to interact with strangers and adults, placing them at risk of online grooming and coming into contact with inappropriate content. Please see attached article for more information.
