Remember that robblox investigation, were they interviewed that 12 year old that already talked like a burned out developer, feeling cheated out of the revenue. The children yearn for the mines..
I would actually be very interested to hear from a lawyer—or at least someone with legal knowledge—why Roblox hasn't been prosecuted for this. These children are creating value for the company, and they're being compensated via a currency which can be converted into dollars. How is that not payment for work?
If Robux could only be converted into Amazon gift cards, I would still argue that was a labor violation, but I could at least understand why the case was murky.
Can Uber hire 16-year-olds to drive for them without a work permit as long as they're paid in special UbiCoins which are converted into dollars later?
Wait till she gets tough PR reviews.
This block is ugly, and our team does not like looking at it :P
