You would also have to make skipping to any point in the video impossible then as folks could just jump ahead until they are past the embedded ad.

Wait, patience, patience

Now you’ve made me throw up in my mouth.

That is just unforgivable.

I had to look up astroturfing in this context, so hopefully I got this right. But isn’t that just the actual commenting then? Obviously voting could get that comment moved closer to the top when done by the perps in this case but I think it would take the community to also be up voting the comment for it to rise to the top. I also don’t think knowing who commented actually fixes this issue nor does it give more ability from an admin perspective to get rid of those comments if that was desired.

I could be missing something though.

What is the benefit here in this case? Basically why do we care who upvotes or downvotes something that it needs to be exposed?

Yeah the same conversations have occurred in my household. I think you made the right choice here. I’m a huge gamer myself and developer, not on Roblox. Usually if anything it’s me being the lenient one when it comes to games in our home, vice my wife. This is one that I did not allow from day 1 regardless of the age of the kid. It was apparent to be a bad apple to me from my initial looks at it, and has only proven that point over the years. I can’t imagine though how hard it is for most parents who are not entrenched in that industry to navigate decisions like that.

That statement doesn’t really make sense. Especially in this case, the website is a business and a store. A government definitely has the right to take legal action against a physical store operating within it’s jurisdiction, so why would the same not hold true for an electronic one?

Eat them

No it was clearly an official duty as defined circa 2024
