i already don’t trust the company who won’t address creeps in a children’s game, you think i’m going to trust them with an AI system that scans faces to determine people’s age?

As a general rule I think if anyone mentions playing Roblox, they are probably in middle school at the oldest. I really don't see a reason for adults to be on there. But the requiring of Face ID is another sign of an invasive privacy trend that's becoming sadly more common for websites in the 2020's. Even besides that, this is so easy to bypass by sending a fake photo.

I haven't played anything on Roblox in a bit but this is like. Beyond weird. I got notified about it recently when I visited the site but I did nothing about it cause I really can't care right now. I have no idea what direction they're trying to take this platform in anymore. They had that whole push for like, more adult-oriented experiences (for some reason?) but at it's core it's still Fun Imaginative Building Platform for Kids Roblox so I guess now we have whatever this is

they've been trying to turn it into some metaverse ai hellscape for a few years now.. some time ago they mentioned wanting to implement dating app features
all this plus the interview with the bazooka from the other day... those in charge of roblox really don't care at all about child safety

I think its going to roblox and its social atmosphere also its going to bring more kids to discord to preds and there will be no responsible adults to stop them. This is a horrible idea since there are way better solutions to moderation plus people can easily downgrade there age so its pretty much a dumb plan that will backfire on Roblox.
