They said they did.

However, by default the software settings opt users into generating adult content. An option exists to "configure workload types manually" which enables users to uncheck the "Adult Content Workloads" option (via 404 media), however this is easily missed in the setup process, which I duly tested for myself to confirm.

Honestly, and I'm not saying I support what's being done here, the way I see it if you're tech savvy enough to be interested in using a program like this you should be looking through all of the options properly anyway. If users don't care what they're doing and are only interested in the rewards that's kind of on them.

I just think the article is focused on the wrong company, Salad is selling a tool that is being potentially misused by users of their client's service. I can certainly see why that can be a problem, but based on the information given in the article I don't think it's really theirs. If that's ALL Salad's used for then that's a different story.

It's Roblox stuff you can buy, it's not power users that are the target demographic

Ah thanks I think I forgot that sentence by the end of the article and thought it was just a user report that it was checked by default. I really don't think that it should be checked by default, depending on where you are it could even get you in trouble. App setup for this kind of stuff isn't necessarily only for power users now, it has gotten very streamlined and tested for conversion.
