Demand David Baszucki resign as CEO of Roblox

The Issue

Roblox was originally designed as a safe, creative space for children aged 8-15 to explore, learn, and enjoy themselves in a virtual world of endless possibilities. However, under the leadership of the current CEO, David Baszucki, the platform has dramatically shifted its focus, turning into a site that harbors inappropriate adult content and facilitating features that are more aligned with a dating site rather than a children's gaming platform.

This change is deeply troubling and unacceptable. The core vision of Roblox as a haven for children to safely engage in creativity, collaboration, and fun has been compromised. In recent years, parents and younger users have expressed growing concerns about encountering explicit content within the game, which they were assured would remain a child-friendly environment.

Statistics show that the number of instances involving inappropriate content has surged, and reports have indicated that Roblox has failed to effectively moderate the influx of unsuitable material. As guardians and caretakers of young users, parents need assurance that their children are safe while playing their favorite games.

Concrete actions are necessary to restore Roblox to its original purpose. A leadership change is imperative - David Baszucki must step down to make way for a new CEO who prioritizes the safety and appropriate use of the platform as it was originally intended.

Sign this petition if you agree that the future of Roblox should return to being a safe and enjoyable space for children, free from adult content. Together, let us urge the necessary change in leadership to protect our children’s digital playground.
