real signature of the roblox ceo

also the thing in the title is essentially a real quote. here's a bit more context if you want it:

Like, you can say, ‘Okay, we are exploiting, you know, child labor,’ right? Or, you can say: we are offering people anywhere in the world the capability to get a job, and even like an income.
So, I can be like 15 years old, in Indonesia, living in a slum, and then now, with just a laptop, I can create something, make money, and then sustain my life.”

What an interesting set of mental gymnastics to try and justify child labor lol thanks for the added context of the quote. Not exploitation, just opportunity 🙃

I mean it's not slavery. I'm just offering people, anywhere in the world, even an African village with no amenities, an opportunity to come and labor on my plantation and suddenly have food and housing he could never have afforded before.
