| Senate Inquiry Pillar | Current Platform Architecture | Statutory Risk & Evidence Gap |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Profit vs. Minor Safety | Soft Spending Warning (Default) | Incentivizes predatory microtransactions and creator split dependency at the expense of parental transparency. |
| 2. Exploitation Detection | Permissive Link Filtering (Low Friction) | Off-platform groomers leverage character-swapped URLs and unmoderated voice channels to bypass automated gates. |
| 3. Response Latency & Triage | 1,800 FTE Mods vs Surge Volume | Backlogs delay mandatory NCMEC CSAM/grooming escalations, violating statutory reporting expectations. |
