County filed a civil lawsuit against Roblox, alleging that the platform markets itself as a gaming experience for children but has created a "largely unsupervised online world" that allows adults to mingle with minors with very little oversight.The lawsuit says that Roblox's architecture makes it easy for adults to masquerade as children in order to target them."Beneath the bright animation and cheerful branding lies an environment in which child predators can readily locate, contact, and interact with minors through Roblox-enabled features and defaults, and where age-inappropriate sexual content and sexually themed interactions and experiences can be assessed and disseminated through Roblox’s functionality and tools, leaving minors to navigate dangers they do not and cannot understand," the lawsuit says.The suit was filed on Thursday and asks that Roblox be ordered to pay a civil penalty of up to $2,500 for each violation of the Unfair Competition and False Advertising laws.
