Roblox, one of the most popular gaming platforms created in 2006, is facing multiple lawsuits after banning YouTuber Schlep. Schlep ran operations against alleged child predators on Roblox, working with police and child safety groups that led to 6 arrests. Roblox responded by permanently banning his account, arguing that vigilante groups like Schlep and his team violate rules and posing as minors “normalizes harmful behavior”. Schelp claims that he had tried to work with Roblox directly, but when he contacted the company, they ignored his reports and banned him. While Schlep worked with police and safety organizations to take action, Roblox has claimed to do so without evidence of taking action and has been shown on multiple occasions to disregard user protection, leading to blatant bullying and predatory behavior going unreported and unfixed. The ban resulted in heavy criticism and protests from people all over the world, many of whom accuse Roblox of putting profit and reputation over the safety and well-being of users, particularly the children who are in danger of being groomed. While Roblox defended its actions, saying it works with law enforcement and added AI safety features, it has done little to redeem itself in the public’s eyes. When asked about whether Roblox actually takes action against people like predators and cyberbullying. Junior Kara Aliezer, who’s played on the platform for nearly a decade, said that “Roblox held an interview, and they were like ‘These games are not actually ours, they’re the creator’s, we ban games if they are truly inappropriate,’ but they’re not taking any action.” Schlep, however, isn’t alone in this. Law by Mike joined Schlep’s legal team in September, representing over 500 clients, and Louisiana. Attorney General Liz Murrill also took legal action to sue Roblox, and additional legal action from at least eight other states has been filed against Roblox.
