Mr. Wayne Moroney:

I will talk about robots in two ways. The first thing I will mention relates to Article 28 and the Article 28 guidelines under the DSA.

There are a couple of measures there which are particularly useful when it comes to a service like Roblox. One is the prevention of contact by strangers. Children should not be contactable by strangers. That is one of the guidelines we would like to see implemented. Alongside that as well is moving conversations off platforms under the DSA and through dark patterns. This is common for other types of servicing issues as well where you see a user engaged with and moved across to a different platform, service or form of communication. We are seeking to prevent that type of activity as a means to protect children under the guidelines.

In following the guidelines and using the other aspects of the DSA, we expect a service like Roblox and other services to become safer for users, particularly for children. For Roblox, in particular, that service is established in the Netherlands. The Dutch DSC is the regulator for them. We have a relationship with that DSC as we do with many others. If we receive concerns and complaints here, we can transmit them to that DSC and it is responsible for dealing with that issue and making sure that it is a well-regulated service. It is a relationship that is working quite well. If there are specific concerns, we are happy to receive them and pass them on.
