Additionally, Hindenburg accuses Roblox of being a 'pedophile hellscape' due to insufficient content moderation, which allegedly allows predators to exploit young users. The report also highlights rampant bot activity on the platform. Following the release of the report, Roblox shares fell by 9.2% premarket. Hindenburg has taken a short position in Roblox shares.
