    “Product lead at Roblox”

    So… monetizing modules children made for free? Isn’t that like the whole thing with Roblox?

        The vast majority are made by children, however, and the model itself is designed for expressly this. Whether adult-aged children also engage with said model is less a condemnation of those individuals and more a merit of the system itself working better than intended, given that this era offers multiple sources for that exploitable demographic. Sickening, sad, and deplorable, yes. Call it what it is, though.

      You kind of know there has to be a product team there, you’d just think no one would admit to being part of it publicly.
