Despite making changes last fall to help block adults from messaging unknown children , Roblox is still failing to stop adults from creeping on(潜伏骚扰;偷偷接近骚扰) kids in other ways, Australia’s eSafety commissioner(网络安全专员;电子安全专员), Julie Inman Grant, said on Thursday. Suspecting that(怀疑……) Roblox may not be doing enough to stop child exploitation(剥削;利用), eSafety conducted testing earlier this year that flagged(标记出;指出) alarming gaps(漏洞;缺口) in Roblox safeguards(防护措施;保障机制). The agency found that adult strangers could still send connection requests(好友申请;连接请求) to kids, whose “profiles and biographies(个人资料与简介), including account names, number and names of connections, avatar images(头像图片), and non-sensitive biographical information(个人传记信息;档案信息) such as their interests were visible to anyone(对任何人可见) on the Roblox platform, with no option to restrict the visibility of this information(无法限制该信息的可见性).” Such requests did not trigger parental alerts(触发家长提醒), eSafety found, and bad actors(不法分子;恶意行为者) could also search kids’ visible-to-anyone contact lists for more targets(搜索孩子们对所有人可见的联系人列表以寻找更多目标).
