The ‘Ice Cream Truck’: How Roblox Built a Playground for Predators

Chicago and California-based attorney Martin Gould and Philadelphia-based attorney Kristen Gibbons Feden join the podcast today to discuss the multi-district litigation they are pursuing against Roblox on behalf of thousands of child survivors of sexual exploitation. Gould and Feden break down how Roblox marketed itself to parents as an educational, child-safe platform while knowingly allowing predators to use its open chat, frictionless friending, and virtual gifting features to groom and exploit children — and why the company's decision to prioritize user growth over safety is at the center of both the failure-to-warn and defective design claims. Through this conversation, listeners gain a clearer understanding of the legal and legislative battles being fought to hold tech companies accountable when they profit from platforms that put children at risk.
