Australian Minister for Communications, Annika Wells, said on the 10th that she has written to the American online gaming platform Roblox, requesting a meeting to discuss the report of the platform being filled with violent and pornographic content that has a negative impact on children. Wells said in an interview with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation on the same day, "Four or five-year-old children seeing violent and bloody content on this platform, many of you may feel as disgusted as I am." She has requested a meeting with executives from Roblox as soon as possible to hear about the measures taken by the platform to protect children, and has instructed the Australian internet regulatory agency to consider "emergency measures" against the platform.
