密西西比州总检察长宣布网络事务主管出任Roblox驻州执法联络官

密西西比州总检察长 Lynn Fitch 10月21日宣布,其办公室网络事务主管 Shawn Wolfe 将出任游戏平台 Roblox 在密西西比州的执法联络官。Fitch 表示,Wolfe 在新岗位上将确保总检察长办公室下属的「网络犯罪儿童特别工作组」(ICAC)及其他执法机构能够与平台保持畅通对接。
这一任命源于今年6月 Fitch 与 Roblox 达成的和解协议:作为和解条件,Roblox 同意在州内聘设执法联络官,保障执法机构全天候实时或近实时接入;和解还包括900万美元用于数字素养教育、500万美元履约保证金,并要求平台实行年龄验证与家长同意、禁止夜间推送通知等儿童安全措施。Fitch 当时表示,大型科技公司曾把利润置于儿童人身安全与心理健康之上,密西西比州将继续追究其责任。
联络官岗位被视为落实和解条款、打击网络儿童剥削的关键一环。
Mississippi Attorney General Names Cyber Director as Roblox Law-Enforcement Liaison
Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch announced on October 21 that her office's cyber director, Shawn Wolfe, will serve as Roblox's law-enforcement liaison officer for Mississippi. Fitch said Wolfe will ensure the attorney general's Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) task force and other law-enforcement agencies have a direct channel to the gaming platform.
The appointment stems from a settlement Fitch reached with Roblox in June. Under the deal, Roblox agreed to appoint an in-state law-enforcement liaison providing agencies round-the-clock real-time or near-real-time access; the settlement also includes $9 million for digital literacy education, a $5 million performance bond, and child-safety measures including age verification, parental consent and a ban on nighttime push notifications. Fitch said at the time that Big Tech had put profits ahead of children's safety and mental health.
The liaison role is seen as a key mechanism for enforcing the settlement terms and combating online child exploitation.
