The Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) said on Jan. 30 it has opened a formal investigation into gaming platform Roblox over potential risks to minors in the European Union.
The Dutch regulator said it will examine whether Roblox is taking sufficient measures to protect underage users on its service, as required under the European Union’s Digital Services Act (DSA), which came into force in early 2024.
