Google Play store has removed at least 100,000 negative user reviews targeting Robinhood, the stock trading platform caught in the center of the GameStop trading frenzy.
Robinhood’s rating on Google Play had dropped from four stars out of five on Wednesday to just one star on Thursday. It had bounced back to four stars at the time of this publication.
The drastic change came after Robinhood, which is popular among investors with little or no experience in online stock trading, announced it would halt purchases of GameStop, AMC, and other stocks promoted by the Reddit’s WallStreetBets discussion board. In apparent revenge, angry Reddit users called on each other to flood the app with 1-star reviews, dipping its review score.
