The DESI version of PUBG Mobile, Mobile India battlefields, apparently received an update that corrects user data sharing with servers in China. And this hotfix comes after the presidency of the parliamentary committee on the Data Protection Bill and the member for the BJP, Meenakshi Lekhi, urged a probe. After several users have pointed out and IGN India checked that mobile battlefields established links with servers in China, Hong Kong, Moscow, among other locations, Lekhi took note of the situation and asked the Ministry of electronics and information technology to examine the material. But Krafton seems to have been fast in his actions and has fixed data sharing.
The Lekhi tweet does not finish the term Krafton Mobile’s new battlefield game a threat to India’s security, just like what we saw from other politicians calling for a ban on the game. The BJP member Urged an investigation, but then there may be something going on on this forehead, Krafton tries not to handle this time. According to IGN India, Krafton has published corrections on mobile battle fields India in an update that stops the data exchange with servers in China. The game was judged earlier to share data with China Mobile Communication Corporation – a state-owned telecommunications company in China and Tencent, among others.
Now, a broad section of users pointed out that communication with servers in China occurred due to data migration between the Mobile India Battlefields and Pubg Mobile India. If you go through the notification that appears in the Mobile India battle area, the transfer of data takes place from Proxima Beta Pte. Limited, which is a company based in Singapore with Tencent Games as a parent. So the ping in Tencent or Proxima Beta makes sense, but what is the need for the game to ping that the servers of China’s mobile communication are unclear. After the hotfix, communication with these servers is closed, but the Ping Server near Proxima Beta Pte. Limited is always there because it is necessary for the migration of data.
Krafton was not very transparent about this debatable incident and did not say anything about it. Meanwhile, the call for a prohibition on mobile battlefields is growing and reaching more politicians and people who are decision-makers. Although still, a prohibition does not seem likely, Krafton may have to face the government’s questions for that. The prohibition is unlikely because Krafton and the Indian government agreed on the revival of Pubg Mobile provided that there will be compliance with the company and Krafton will invest $ 100 million in India, which announced the year. last.
