Roblox reportedly banned in Turkey amid wave of censorship concerns

Roblox is a kid’s game. But that apparently hasn’t stopped the Turkish government from banning the massively popular sandbox title in the country a few days after similar bans were passed on social media sites like Instagram and Wattpad.

According to several Turkish outlets and thousands of disgruntled Roblox players on social media, a ban on Roblox went into place in Turkey today, Aug. 7. The move follows similar bans on different social media sites, sparking censorship concerns for players and general observers alike. Instagram was banned in the country on Aug. 2 after the Turkish government and President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan claimed the platform was censoring posts of “Palestinian martyrs.” There’s been no reason given for the country’s reported ban on Roblox as of yet.
