Kentucky Attorney General Russell Coleman filed a lawsuit against Roblox on Oct. 7, alleging that the gaming platform failed to implement sufficient safety controls to protect child users from predators.
Roblox is an interactive online gaming platform on which users can create and play games and connect in real time. Coleman said nearly two-thirds of children aged 9 to 12 in the United States play on Roblox.
