Roblox in hot water. A petition to remove CEO David Baszucki surges after predator drama, Schlep ban, and lawsuit.

More than 100,000 individuals sign a new petition that calls for the removal of Roblox's CEO after recent controversies on the popular platform.

The lawsuits allege that Roblox prioritized its profits over child safety. The gaming platform rebuts claims it would intentionally risk the safety of its users.

Congressman Ro Khanna, a Democrat from California, has issued a call to the developers of Roblox to "do more" to help protect children amid ongoing reports that the platform is not doing enough to safeguard young people from bad actors.

According to Moment Magazine, “schlep” is thought to be one of the first Yiddishisms to enter the American lexicon in the early 20th century, as Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe flooded onto American shores. It filled a gap in the English language, which lacked a word with a similar meaning that carried the connotation of struggle.

Several users expressed mixed feelings about Lady Gaga’s decision to join Roblox, with one suggesting that “it seems like they’re trying to lure more people into the corrupted game.” Others found the timing unusual, calling the move “odd” given the current controversies surrounding the platform.

A sexploitation case involving one of the most popular games for children has emerged as a 10-year-old girl was groomed into sending nude photos to a man in his 40s.

A popular Roblox content creator alleged the platform has threatened to ban him for his involvement in exposing sexual predators on Roblox through Youtube videos. Schlep, a longtime Roblox and YouTube user, said the online gaming platform sent him a cease and desist notice due to his actions violating the company‘s polices.
