India bans 118 more Chinese mobile apps, including PUBG

The Central government on Wednesday banned 118 Chinese mobile apps, including the popular game PUBG. As per the Union government the apps have been banned by the Ministry of Electronics & Information & Technology as, they were involved in events that are harmful to control, truthfulness, security & safety of the state and public order.

"This discrepancy will safety measure the welfares of crores of Indian mobile & virtual reality handlers. This verdict is a targeted change to confirm the safety, security & control of Indian World Wide Web," said a statement from the ministry.

The statement said it has acknowledged many complaints from many sources, as well as reports about misappropriation use of some mobile apps accessible on Android & iOS platforms, for thieving & surreptitiously spreading users’ data in an unauthorized way to servers placed outside India.

"The accumulating of these information, its exclusion & reporting by fundamentals incompatible to countrywide security & defense of India, which ultimately trespasses upon the sovereignty & veracity of India, is an element of very considerate & straight concern which needs emergency actions," it said.

The government had banned 59 Chinese apps on 29th June 2020 to guarantee the safety & sovereignty of Indian Internet. The list comprised apps like TikTok, Shareit, UC Browser, Helo, Likee, Mi Community, Virus Cleaner, Beauty Plus, WeChat, UC News, Weibo, Xender, Bigo Live, Cam Scanner, Clean Master – Cheetah Mobile, etc.

A month later it had banned 47 more apps for supposedly functioning as “replicas” of the earlier banned apps. With the fresh ban, the sum of Chinese apps banned in India now stands at 224.

The Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre under the Ministry of Home Affairs has also sent a comprehensive recommendation for blocking these malicious apps, said the declaration. "Likewise, there have been equal mutual concerns, highlighted by numerous public administrations, both exterior & privileged the Parliament of India. There has been a solid refrain in the public space to take harsh action against apps that damage India’s control as well as the privacy of our residents," it added.

On the source of these & in receipt of of recent sincere efforts that evidence posted, consents sought, functionality implanted as well as data gathering practices of above-stated Apps raise serious apprehensions that these Apps collect & share data in secret way & conciliation individual data & info of users that can have a unembellished hazard to safety & security of the State.

The list now also contains apps like Baidu & WeChat but the biggest name on it is indisputably PUBG Mobile. The first time the government launched its “digital” strike on China to defence India’s confidentiality, safety & security, many were left speculating how & why PUBG Mobile had missed the ban. It could have been due to the app’s complicated — read, mixed — origin.

PUBG is an online multiplayer battle royal game made by South Korean video game company Bluehole subsidiary PUBG Corporation. But PUBG Mobile is not made by the same subsidiary. When PUBG Mobile was primarily launched, the object behind it was to make PUBG enter China as the game was banned there. The game was unrestricted in China only after Shenzhen-based Tencent Games accepted a 1.5% stake in Bluehole Studio, & this was how PUBG Mobile came into being. The rest is history.

With the government now banning PUBG Mobile, it is clear that it wants to set a solid superiority that the nation’s privacy cannot be taken for granted.

Both Google & Apple will have to obey with the new presiding & eliminate these apps, including PUBG Mobile, from the Play Store & App Store correspondingly. ISPs will also have to selectively block these apps so current users can’t access them till further announcement.
