Roblox Studio head says that you can say they're exploiting child labour, or you can say that capitalism is a gift for children living in slums.

    For anyone who is unfamiliar with these and wants a more in depth look at how Roblox is definitely exploiting kids (from 2 years ago, so you know it’s somehow been made worse since)

      +1 for these videos. Any positive examples of kids getting famous/rich from it are cherry picked and the vast majority are fully exploited.
