Chris Hansen’s in the news again with the whole “investigating Roblox” thing, and while I have absolutely no love for Roblox and would honestly laugh if it died, this video does a good job explaining why Chris Hansen is not someone you should trust.
Also worth considering: The whole payment processor porn ban thing was ostensibly about “protecting the children,” so it’s probably best to be careful about how you cheer on similar justifications elsewhere. I’m not saying Roblox isn’t harming children (it ABSOLUTELY is), I’m just saying to keep your guard up.
What bugs me about this shitty campaign from Collective Shout and the other “pretend to care about the children” orgs, is that Roblox has been right there the whole time. PMG did two videos exposing Roblox over two years ago, and I know others have followed suit in the games media, but these orgs stayed silent.
