The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) and Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center (CICC) have issued a warning to Roblox.
The DICT and CICC have stated that Roblox could face restriction or suspension in the Philippines.
The move follows reports that the platform has been used for grooming, sexual predation and exploitation of minors.
Authorities said protecting children online is a priority in line with a directive from Ferdinand Marcos Jr..
The agencies are requiring Roblox to strengthen its child safety systems. The platform has to also coordinate with local law enforcement to address these issues. Failure to comply could lead to restrictions in the Philippines.
DICT and CICC also pointed to recent actions involving platforms like Telegram and Tumblr which were flagged over similar concerns but avoided bans after working with authorities.
Officials emphasized that no platform is exempt from regulations when it comes to child safety in the country.
