Roblox Settles With 3 States Over Endangering Children, Will Pay $36 Million Authored by Naveen Athrappully via The Epoch Times, Online interactive gaming platform Roblox has agreed to settle with West Virginia, Alabama, and Nevada for a combined $35.78 million, committing to strengthen children’s safety through measures such as mandatory age verification and chat restrictions. Roblox reached an $11.08 million settlement with West Virginia. In an April 21 statement, the office of West Virginia Attorney General John B. McCuskey said that Roblox has agreed to “major child safety overhaul.” The settlement came after an investigation conducted by the office found that the platform exposed child users to sexual predators, sexual and violent content, and grooming risks. McCuskey said there were “serious failures that left children exposed to real danger.” Under the agreement, Roblox will verify the ages of all users before allowing chat access. This is expected to limit instances of adults contacting minors and reduce the risk of grooming. The company will block all chat until users verify their age, seeking to reduce the use of anonymous accounts by predators to target children. Once age verification is complete, adults can contact under-16 users only through verified trusted friends, according to the statement. The accounts of all under-16 users will, by default, run on safe content mode, which will reportedly block out adult-rated material. Roblox has also committed to recruiting an internet safety specialist in West Virginia. The settlement funds will be paid over several years. “I have two young daughters who love Roblox, so I know how popular it is,” McCuskey said. “I am thankful that Roblox took our concerns seriously and worked with us to make these major safety changes.” Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall announced in an April 21 statement that the state has reached a $12.2 million settlement with Roblox. Under the deal, Roblox has agreed to verify the age o...

Mandelson received two ‘clearance denied’ red ticks yet top Foreign Office civil servant says he did not have access to file – which he later read UK politics live – latest updates The verdict on Sir Olly Robbins’ parliamentary testimony, among fellow knights of the civil service realm at least, was unanimous. Lord Sedwill, a former cabinet secretary, called on the prime minister to “retract his accusations against Olly Robbins and reinstate him”. Sir Simon McDonald, who once held Robbins’ job as top civil servant in the Foreign Office, said if Keir Starmer had only waited to hear his evidence to the foreign affairs select committee he would never have sacked him.

The company posted non-GAAP earnings of $0.40 per share on revenue of $279.98 million, up 27.1% from a year earlier. Calix forecast second-quarter revenue with a midpoint of about $290 million, above consensus, and raised its full-year 2026 revenue growth outlook to 15% to 20% from a prior 10% to 15% range, citing strong demand and the rollout of memory surcharges. However, the company flagged margin pressure from rising memory costs. It said gross margins are expected to come in at 54.25% to 57.25% in the current quarter, with full-year margins seen declining by 50 to 150 basis points, as surcharges aimed at offsetting higher costs are expected to weigh on profitability.

Say what you like about Leicester City’s dismal performances but just don’t say it to Harry Winks when he’s boarding the team coach outside Fratton Park shortly after they’ve lost their 18th Championship match of the season. Last Saturday, the midfielder told travelling fans to “[Eff] off!” ahead of the return leg of their 328-mile round trip to watch their side lose to Portsmouth. Unsurprisingly, Winks was not asked to reprise his role as the club’s public liaison officer after their relegation to League One was confirmed by Tuesday’s home draw with Hull City. It was left to local lad Hamza Choudhury to take on the role of human shield outside the King Power Stadium as his teammates sheepishly slunk away to their cars and made good their escape from the angry mob.

In the early days of April, a group of mid-level employees at Microsoft Corp. started making calls that would send tremors through the global market for carbon removals. Employees told at least three carbon-removal project developers that contracts under negotiation were being shelved, according to people familiar with the matter who asked not to be identified discussing private conversations. At least one other developer was told to check the terms of their existing contracts to be ready to challenge any future effort from Microsoft to cut them off, a separate person said. Microsoft employees speaking on the calls appeared to be delivering a single message, the people said: The company on which the entire carbon-removal market relies is pulling back. Another person briefed on a private response from Microsoft said the staffers had jumped the gun, revealing a proposal that wasn’t meant to be made public until later this year. It wasn’t clear whether the employees did this deliberately to warn the market, or whether there was an internal miscommunication. Microsoft told at least one partner that it’s following up internally on how the communication went so awry, according to one of the people familiar with the matter. A spokesperson for Microsoft declined to comment. What the company ultimately decides to do with these projects matters because of its juggernaut-status in bankrolling technologies for capturing carbon — meaning its withdrawal would send shock-waves through the market. Many projects around the world have developed a “Microsoft or bust” business model, says Lee Bostock, founding partner at Vuelta Carbon. “If Microsoft were to pause or retreat, that would cause untold pain,” he said. Microsoft has sought to reassure stakeholders that it’s not planning anything drastic. “Our carbon removal program has not ended,” Microsoft Chief Sustainability Officer Melanie Nakagawa said in an emailed comment on April 13. And at least three carbon developers have been to...
