> "Roblox is the first online gaming or communication platform to require facial age checks to access chat, establishing what we believe will become a new industry standard."
> "The rollout begins today with a voluntary age check period. The requirement will begin in select markets in early December and expand globally in early January wherever chat is available."
> "We designed the Facial Age Estimation process to protect privacy. Images and video are deleted immediately after processing."
> "Today, Roblox is going further. We’re unlocking chat and age-appropriate experiences for our users by requiring them to complete an age check through Facial Age Estimation or ID verification."
> "During the first week of December, we’ll begin enforcing the age check requirement in select markets including Australia, New Zealand, and the Netherlands. Those requirements will extend to the rest of the world wherever chat is available in early January."
> "After users complete the age check process, we will inform them of their assigned age group: Under 9, 9-12, 13-15, 16-17, 18-20, or 21+."
> "We continue to prohibit image and video sharing in chat, eliminating common vectors for harm."
> "Early next year, we’ll be enforcing this requirement for the Team Create Collaboration feature in Roblox Studio, requiring users to be of a similar age to collaborate in Studio together."
> "Proactive tools like age estimation are key to building a safer and more positive digital world for kids and teens."

>under 9
If they actually cared about muh children safety they'd just kick any kids within that age group out of the platform. I know they won't because they need to squeeze their parents' credit cards and turn them into braindead consoomers first, though.

They're limiting everyone's ability to communicate over the internet.

Now it's easier for pedos, they can just borrow their nieces or nephew's face. Put some make up on the kids and you got multiple accounts and since they'll be verified as a kid now they're more protected.

We are pushing through an "under 16s social media ban" but really it's a trojan horse for digital ID and arresting people for what they say online.

So I just need to download a picture of a kid and spoof it to trick the facial recognition into believing I'm a child?

It's funny how the mainstream always use terms like "Indian village" instead of "on India" to distanciate pajeets as if it's just a thing from a remote village, like with the poop festival they do.

Grooming hysteria was pushed everywhere after MeToo for this to happen.
>>
>>107252744
There's nothing wrong with this, roblox is full of deranged groomers and other subhumans, parents are incapable of protecting their children due to shitmuttmerican culture poisoning the world with anti-intellectualism, and thus higher IQ people need to make all the decisions while making sure cattle is easy to supervise and control. In general we need shaming culture back too, if you are a shitmuttmerican coded adult who plays roblox as a grown man you should be treated as either a criminal, mentally ill and worthy of an asylum or as a retard that needs a caretaker and supervisor. Cattlepigs don't deserve a free internet, no matter the amount of censorship and centralization, higher IQ people will by nature of internet always be able to find pockets of freedom and anonymity, while subhuman freak cattle deserves and *must* be controlled, otherwise you end up with amerimutt populace.

if they wanted to protect children they would just shut the whole game down, this does more harm than good
>>
>>107252744
so now this pedo spawning pool also collects pics of underage kids? what could go wrong...
>>
childless people (incels, faggots) won't understand
>>
isnt this game for little kids? why the fuck does it even come with chat functionality?
>>
Front page games just brainrot and cashgrab, still have some hidden gem games
>Still cannot make games like:
>Build own Killdozer
>Fly the plane and crash into tower
>Escape the nazi gas chamber

good. games that target kids shouldn't even have any form of communication to begin with.
>>
>>107259218
>good
are you retarded?
the game will still have communication but now it will also doxx face images of kids and maintain essentially a grooming database
pedos will still access the game but now instead of wasting hours trying to pinpoint who is really a kid or not, they have 100% confirmed targets
>>
>>107259258
lol, lmao even.
>>
>>107259294
this, so much this
>>
>>107259258
it literally says it will separate children from adults in the post so that is what is good, its a step in the right direction. I don't give a shit about "privacy" implications or whatever garbage excuse the pedos want to use

there do be implications other than privacy, like not being able to play games with your family though I know you probably don't care about that as well >>107258868

>retarded kids doxx themselves into a roblox database
>pedos use a doxxed image from previous leeches to pretend to be a child
>roblox now groups retarded kids and pedos into same chats, no extra work required by pedos
off yourself right now because you have negative iq
if roblox wanted to solve this situation, they would remove all forms of chats from the game. but they wont because it hurts the bottom line
this solution is actively worse than literally not doing anything
>>
>>107259356
>this solution is actively worse than literally not doing anything
thank the youtubers making vids about roblox being bad and needing to do something asap
>>
>>107252744
I'm very much against having to ID yourself to use online services, but this isn't a bad move. Having chat disabled by default is good for this game since that's how predators come in contact with kids. I don't think however that getting chat enabled for kids in the same age group is a good idea, because this will be easily abused by those who actually want to and will give a false sense of security. Just disable it outright.
>>
>>107252744
It's a good thing as long as it stays in children game.

>Needing to give your ID over JUST TO CHAT

online video games are dead. text chat in video games has been such a basic fucking feature for 30+ years and now its being walled off for no reason at all
>>
>>107259747
it's so they can ban your ID from all games if you slur in chat
