INSIGHT: Ban Evasion in Roblox: Cracks in the Safety Net

In this episode of Foxtrails, we investigate how extremist and conspiratorial content manages to persist in Roblox, a game widely celebrated for its creativity and trusted by millions of children worldwide. We analyze the strategic ban-evasion tactics employed by malicious users: manipulating usernames to slip through chat filters, layering clothing designs to reveal banned symbols, and exploiting “holder accounts” to shield extremist communities.
