      I mean the whole platform is designed to take advantage of kids by “allowing them” the freedom to do whatever…

      I think this is perfectly keeping with their business model of using kids for profit. And I doubt they really care all that much about consequences. Locking down the platform doesn’t net them more money after all; kids are broke.

        If I had to guess they want to impress investors by increasing their user count, and since it seems that almost every child with access to Roblox already has an account they might think they can get more users by expanding the target demographic.
