I was scrolling through MSN (Microsoft News) because that's what you do when you're bored and I came across an article about roblox getting sued for childe exploitation. Here's a quick summary of what I read:

Roblox is getting sued because whenever someone makes a UGC item roblox makes 30% of it off sales. Therefore roblox is getting 'paid' for people to create/sell roblox items. Since like 70% of all roblox players are under the age of 18 (meaning they're kids) that means a good sum of UGC items are made by kids and since roblox makes money (robux) off of it, people consider it Child Exploitation.

Please say your opinions about this below (optional)

I have to say, that's hilarious. Even though I think Roblox is annoying, I'll admit that this is a bit weird. First, I think that Roblox needs money to function, and what harm are they really doing? Second, I'm sure a large percentage of kids on Roblox aren't buying their own stuff, which means that parents are really the ones paying. Finally, if making a profit off of kids is exploiting them, then many other companies are also guilty of it.
