Wait till she gets tough PR reviews.

- qikInNdOutReply 4y agoRemember that robblox investigation, were they interviewed that 12 year old that already talked like a burned out developer, feeling cheated out of the revenue. The children yearn for the mines.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gXlauRB1EQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gXlauRB1EQ
- asciii 4y agoYikes... Scratch and Roblox conspiracy to create an army of child developers? :O
- Wowfunhappy 4y agoPlease do not conflate Scratch and Roblox! Scratch is open source software created by a nonprofit foundation to promote education and creativity. Roblox exploits children for profit and I quite literally believe they are violating child labor laws.
- asciii 4y ago> I quite literally believe they are violating child labor laws. Couldn't agree more the more I learn about them.
- Wowfunhappy 4y agoI would actually be very interested to hear from a lawyer—or at least someone with legal knowledge—why Roblox hasn't been prosecuted for this. These children are creating value for the company, and they're being compensated via a currency which can be converted into dollars. How is that not payment for work? If Robux could only be converted into Amazon gift cards, I would still argue that was a labor violation, but I could at least understand why the case was murky. Can Uber hire 16-year-olds to drive for them without a work permit as long as they're paid in special UbiCoins which are converted into dollars later?
