The Turkish government has blocked access to Roblox for all users and creators over “child exploitation” concerns.

Further claims stated, according to Turkish media, that Roblox hosted virtual parties promoting pedophilia and that “robux,” the platform’s virtual currency, was being distributed by bot accounts to encourage children’s involvement in these activities, and excess presence of gambling sites and their predatory tactics.

On one hand the internet doesn't have a lot of spaces for kids these days
On the other parents don't really supervise their children that well making Roblox dangerous, especially since Roblox moderation is not good at handling this considering a predator was outed well in advance before they wound up hurting someone through Roblox
