As a foster parent, we get trained on how kids frequently get trafficked and the number one place is anywhere parents feel their kids are safe and don’t need close supervision. So anything kid centric like Disney World or family centric like a church are prime targets for predators. Roblox is a kid centric place where parents don’t closely watch their kids.

Roblox is a big enough company and has been around long enough that they should be doing something. They should be doing something because they definitely know this happens at this point. If you believe everything they claim on their website is true: https://corp.roblox.com/resource/child-safety, they are doing something. As far as I can tell, there isn’t a report or any way to validate they are actually doing anything. You just have to trust that the publicly traded company is investing in a department that doesn’t directly generate profits for its stock holders. You have to trust this company is not giving in to pressure each quarter to increase profits and decrease costs around this function of their business.

I push back on the idea that if something is designed for kids it doesn’t need to be safe for kids. Roblox has designed something for kids, they should do something to make it safe for kids, and parents should watch their kids.

There are other ways to lower the amount of plastic in you. If you donate your blood you can measurably lower your pfas levels. Really just removing blood which carries plastic through your whole body will also lower your concentration of plastics. Because plastic is in the water, make sure you drink filtered water. They do make filters that will catch micro plastics and some will advertise it. If you want to keep your levels lower avoid hydrophobic coatings that sit next to food for extended periods of time and definitely don’t heat that food next to a hydrophobic coating. Think microwaving food in a container with coatings that’ll leach into the food. So bags of popcorn should be avoided like the plague, unfortunately.

If you think about it, this was perhaps the most humane way to conduct war. No humans were harmed in this attack, and the ability to harm humans was severely degraded. You had drones smash into unmanned airplanes. Nothing but money and hardware was lost. This is the utopian version of war if such a thing could ever exist. One country removes another country’s ability to harm humans with nobody getting hurt and everyone gets to go home.
