Roblox Boosts Child Safety with Auto-Blocking DMs for Users Under 13

Roblox has introduced new safety measures and enhanced parental controls in response to external pressure and criticism regarding child safety.

These changes follow accusations from short-selling firm Hindenburg that Roblox prioritized growth over child safety.
