Are the access bans on Discord and Roblox being lifted? New statement from the Minister

New statements continue to be made regarding Discord and Roblox, which have been inaccessible in our country for some time. Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Abdulkadir Uraloğlu responded to the question, "Will Discord and Roblox be reopened?" and stated that the bans could be lifted if the necessary regulations are implemented by both platforms.

WHEN WILL ROBLOX AND DISCORD BE REOPENED?

It was recently stated that negotiations are ongoing for Roblox, which has been subject to an access ban in our country since August 7 and has become a favorite for both players and content creators. While no official decision has been made regarding Roblox yet, it is frequently emphasized that talks are continuing.

In his new statement, Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Abdulkadir Uraloğlu said, "We are waiting for the court's decision for Roblox and Discord. If the unwanted content has been removed, access will be granted."

In his previous statements, Uraloğlu had said, "When we detect harmful content, we notify them, and they state that they will remove it. Once the content is removed and an application is made to the court, access can be restored as the court's decision is complied with. There is positive content on the gaming portal, but there is also some content we do not want. Remove this content from Turkey; we are not trying to discipline the world. They used to not take us as a counterpart, but now they contact us asking, 'Which content would you like us to remove?'"

WHAT HAPPENED?

Roblox.com, which has been inaccessible since August 7, was blocked by the decision of the Adana 6th Criminal Court of Peace, numbered 2024/5282 D. İş. The reason for the ban was stated as inappropriate content directed at children. Following major platforms like PayPal and Wattpad, the bans on Roblox and Discord have caused intense debate among social media users. New developments and statements are being closely followed and will continue to be shared.
