Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier is taking further legal action against a popular children’s game, Roblox, adding to the dozens of other lawsuits against the company from families across the nation with similar allegations.
Uthmeier’s office has a separate criminal investigation into whether Roblox’s actions—or lack of action—allowed or aided predators in targeting children. The Florida attorney general’s new lawsuit accuses Roblox of deceiving parents, failing to protect children from being groomed by predators and seeing graphic content, and misrepresenting its safety.
