Roblox’s age verification checks are “unpopular,” but Chief Safety Officer Matt Kaufman says they’re worth the cost

I wouldn’t want to be a Roblox developer right now. Constantly forced to straddle the line of mandatory security and fun, the platform’s diverse player demographic is both the reason its so successful, but also one of its biggest headaches. We’ve seen new age verification restrictions enforced as a result of internet safety laws coming into place in various countries – that went down like the proverbial lead balloon. Now, in order to publish games on the platform, your account has to match certain criteria. It’s a move that’s fanned the already blossoming flames, but one that Chief Safety Officer Matt Kaufman says is worth the “cost.”
