Robinhood has started selling users' stock without their permission and has been hit with a class-action lawsuit accusing the stock trading app of siding with Wall Street hedge funds by blocking investors' ability to buy shares of GameStop following a Reddit-fueled rally. Robinhood on Thursday blocked its users from buying stock in GameStop and 12 other companies, citing 'recent volatility' after a rally that saw shares in the video game retailer soar 1,700 percent this month. The company said that it would begin allowing 'limited buys' for some of the banned shares on Friday.

Robinhood users shared notifications they received saying that their shares of GameStop had been sold without their permission. A Robinhood spokeswoman declined to comment when rea
