And there's a lot, it's a lot easier to show you what I mean by that than tell you that because it's, you know, parents can hear internet has predators.

The park, there might be a sex offender at the park that's staring at a kid, but until they see it or it's happened to them, it's usually not real.

And of course, it's easy to say somebody like myself who works in this space is going to be an extremist or somebody that's going to immediately assume everybody is bad because I deal with this every day.

I have no evidence to believe that it isn't a significant problem because I'm finding in almost eight years that there's more people

that are willing to meet or talk with a child inappropriately than not on not just Roblox, but any social media platform, chat app.

And I've demonstrated this live on many podcasts.

And it's never failed, unfortunately.

I wish that I could fail.

I wish I could pull my laptop out, go to a chat site, pretend to be a child, and not have a grown man asking me to do something inappropriate.

But I have never failed, unfortunately.

I understand that.

But to give you just a counter to that, I mean, right after my interview with Sean Ryan, a 13-year-old girl from the same exact group I was just talking about was hanging by an extension cord in a parking lot.

And in the chat room while she did this live, we're saying that they would, you know, she took her clothes off.

It'd be hot or she died.

You know, in the parking lot.

This happened right after.

Yeah, yeah.

There's been a ton of suicides.

This is a significant issue.

And that's why I wanted to talk about it.
