PUBG Mobile Ban: Is Only Livik Map Banned Or The Entire Game?

A couple of hours ago, the Indian Government announced the ban of PUBG Mobile in India along with other 118 Chinese apps. According to the Indian Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), the banned apps pose a direct threat to Indian users’ data.

In the list provided by the Indian Government, PUBG Mobile was mentioned as ‘PUBG Mobile Nordic Map: Livik.’ Because of this, a lot of Indian PUBG Mobile players are under the impression that only the Livik map is banned, and the rest of the content in PUBG Mobile will still be available to play. However, that isn’t the case, because the entire PUBG Mobile app is banned.

PUBG Mobile is known to change its name every time they launch a new map in the game. For instance, when PUBG Mobile launched the revamped version of Miramar map, Miramar 2.0, or Mad Miramar, the full name of PUBG Mobile on Google Play Store was ‘PUBG Mobile: Mad Miramar.’

So, in the list, the name of the game is ‘PUBG Mobile Nordic Map: Livik’ because that’s the actual name of the app on Google Play Store.

To sum it up, it’s safe to say that the entire PUBG Mobile app is banned, and not just one particular map, and there is no way of escaping the truth.

Also, right now, many Indian players can run the PUBG Mobile app even after the ban notification. However, that’s maybe because it takes some time to initiate the complete ban of PUBG Mobile in India.

9 VCs in Madrid and Barcelona discuss the COVID-19 era and look to the future

Spain’s startup ecosystem has two main hubs: Madrid and Barcelona. Most observers place Barcelona first and Madrid second, but the gap appears to close every year. Barcelona has benefitted from attracting expats in search of sun, beach and lifestyle who tend to produce more internationally minded startups. Madrid’s startups have predominantly been Spain or Latin America-focused, but have become increasingly international in nature. Although not part of this survey, we expect Valencia to join next year, as city authorities have been going all-out to attract entrepreneurs and investors. The overall Spanish ecosystem is generally less mature than those in the U.K., France, Sweden and Germany, but it has been improving at a fast clip. More recently, entrepreneurs in Spain have moved away from emulating success in pursuit of innovative technologies. Following the financial crisis, the Spanish government supported the creation of startups with the launch of FOND-ICO GLOBAL, a €1.5 billi...

Emulating USB Dongle – Introducing HASP Dongle Emulator Software

Information Technology Blog - - Emulating USB Dongle – Introducing HASP Dongle Emulator Software - Information Technology Blog Over the years the methods used by software developers and producers to limit the amount of users to a specific number in a licensing agreement have become more complex.  The aim of copy protection is to protect the intellectual rights and financial investment of the individual developers and manufacturing companies.   A way of getting around this protection is to reproduce the media through which you can deliver the application to other users,  meaning that the software can be replicated far in excess of that specified in the license.
