Australia's online safety regulator has issued legally enforceable transparency notices to major gaming platforms like Roblox, Minecraft, Fortnite, and Steam, demanding they detail how they prevent risks such as child grooming, cyberbullying, and extremist propaganda. This crackdown follows concerns that offenders use these platforms to exploit children and spread harmful content. Roblox has also agreed to $35.8 million settlements in the U.S. over child safety issues, contributing to a 6.8% drop in its share price. Gaming companies face hefty penalties if they fail to comply with Australia's Online Safety Codes, signaling increased regulatory scrutiny ahead.
