Roblox, the widely popular online gaming platform, is banned in Türkiye on Wednesday, a move that comes in the wake of a nationwide block on Instagram. This

Roblox and IG are addiction machines that belong in the garbage. Especially roblox the way they target kids.

Idk how I feel about this censorship, tbh.

Turkish Government’s typical approach to dealing with sites is “demand the site to comply with whatever excuse they got, if they don’t deal with it fast, block the site entirely.”. For IG they blamed censorship on posts involving the hamas leader’s death and on roblox they blame the child abuse concerns.

IG already claims to have resolved this situation (update: and they’re appearently getting unblocked really soon), and roblox claim is fucking hypocritical considering they defended the higher ups in the ensar foundation rape scandal and blamed it all onto a single person. Catch your fucking local predators before going after online predators.
