Qatar has banned the popular online gaming platform Roblox, citing child safety concerns. Users in the country can no longer access the game, with both app and web versions displaying connection errors. The move follows public appeals on social media urging action against the platform, though Qatari authorities have not yet officially confirmed the restriction.
Roblox, which enables users to create and explore virtual worlds, has faced global criticism for exposing children to inappropriate content and potential exploitation. Several countries, including China and Turkey, have already blocked the game. Qatar’s decision aligns with its broader efforts to enhance digital safety for minors.
Authorities are advising parents to closely monitor their children’s online activities. The ban reflects growing scrutiny of gaming platforms worldwide, particularly those with user-generated content that may pose risks to young users. Qatar joins a list of nations taking proactive measures to safeguard children in digital spaces.
