Roblox is employing technology from Persona, a San Francisco identification verification company whose website says it can “Ensure that users are who they say they are.” However, Roblox will not use Persona to identify the actual identity of the user, just an estimate of their age, according to Roblox VP of Civility and Partnerships Tami Bhaumik.

The new system, combined with verified IDs and parental consent, "will provide a more accurate measure of a user's age" than what's available now.

Louisiana sued Roblox last month, alleging the gaming platform is “overrun with harmful content and child predators because it prioritizes user growth.”
