Revision History

A coalition of advocacy groups led by Fairplay and the National Center on Sexual Exploitation filed a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission on May 20, 2026, alleging that Roblox uses manipulative monetization design and inadequate safety measures that harm its tens of millions of child users. The complaint arrives as Roblox faces over 140 federal lawsuits related to child exploitation and comes weeks after the platform introduced new age-based account tiers—moves critics say are reactive rather than preventive.
