澳大利亚eSafety委员会在今年早期的测试中发现,Roblox平台存在多项严重的儿童保护漏洞12。尽管该平台在去年秋天曾采取措施阻止成人向陌生儿童发送消息,但测试表明成人仍可通过其他方式与儿童建立联系12。
根据调查,成人陌生人能够向儿童用户发送连接请求,这些请求不会触发任何家长警报1。儿童账户的个人资料、传记信息、账户名称、联系人列表和头像图像对平台所有用户可见,且没有选项限制可见性1。这意味着不良行为人可以通过搜索儿童可见的联系人列表来寻找更多潜在目标1。
澳大利亚eSafety委员会认为Roblox未能充分遵守澳大利亚《在线安全法》的相关规定2,指出该平台"仍在让儿童处于风险之中,包括允许儿童与陌生成年人建立联系"2。面对这些指控,Roblox承诺进一步改进其儿童安全功能2。
Australia's eSafety Commissioner has determined that Roblox continues to expose children to adult contact despite implementing messaging restrictions last autumn.1 Early testing by the eSafety agency revealed multiple gaps in the platform's protective measures, most critically that adult strangers can send connection requests to minors without triggering parental alerts.1 The regulator concluded that Roblox remains in violation of Australia's Online Safety Act and has left children at risk by allowing them to connect with unknown adults.2
The investigation uncovered that children's profiles, biographical information, account names, contact lists, and avatar images remain visible to all platform users with no privacy controls available to restrict this exposure.1 This visibility enables bad actors to search through children's contact lists to identify additional targets.1 Commissioner Julie Inman Grant stated that while Roblox took steps to prevent adults from messaging unknown children, the platform has failed to block adult harassment through alternative channels.1 In response to the findings, Roblox pledged to make further improvements to its child safety features.2
