Its demographic data; if the apps themselves have any access to it at all, it will be misused by advertising companies to see if they're attracting kids (assuming people are actually truthful; i was totally 18 when i first looked at porn, trust me bro).
To tear a company to shreds for getting kids addicted to loot boxes you first have to show they know their targeting kids.
This isn't about porn, it's about app stores & Roblox.
You’re forgetting that the parents are more responsible to their children’s safety. Don’t be like getting your 13 yr old gta 5. Easiest thing to do is buy an off the shelf solution for your win11 device to restrict and monitor.
