Roblox's stock dropped after a Hindenburg Research report accused the company of inflating user metrics and not adequately protecting children from online predators.
The Hindenburg Research report suggests Roblox may inflate user activity figures by 25-42%, and engagement hours may be inflated by as much as 100%.
A safeguarding concern arises as Hindenburg highlights that Roblox has allegedly compromised child safety to report user growth, indicated by their findings and testing accounts with pedophilic names.
Roblox has previously faced scrutiny for alleged safety failures, with reports of arrests linked to abuse and grooming incidents occurring on their platform.
