The Netherlands’ consumer protection regulator ACM is investigating Roblox for potential risks to minors. The probe will assess if Roblox complies with the EU’s Digital Services Act, which mandates safety measures for underage users. The platform has faced criticism for not adequately protecting young users from predators and is currently dealing with lawsuits in the U.S. In response, Roblox announced plans for age verification through facial recognition to enhance safety.
