Just over a month game from .Niantic,Inc. The release has caused a lot of controversy. Be it polemics..facts.rational or just .polemics that are blown based on opinions and without clear sources. This makes the Pokemon Go game even more interesting to follow. Or even a ridiculous thing that can only be understood. The news that was spread, some of which were confused about the source. Even crazier is the existence of Pokemon Go which is associated with ISIS terrorists. Duh...
A rational fact that often becomes a polemic is because of the many violations committed by .Pokemon Go players. starting from breaking through forbidden places, disrupting traffic, and accidents that often occur because players are ignorant of the surrounding environment, immersed in the excitement of the game. For this, it seems that a more serious study is needed. Considering the existence of these pokemon monsters, they are placed randomly and do not rule out the possibility in forbidden places or dangerous places such as on roads, train stations, or even the latest incident of a .Pokemon Trainer falling off a cliff due to chasing Pokemon on the edge of a cliff.<br />
From the very beginning of the release of this Pokemon Go game, news has spread that Indonesia is in danger of being blocked from the Pokemon Go game distribution list. The reason is because although Niantic.Inc has not opened a download portal for the Indonesia Region, there are already many sites that provide offline Apk file installers for Pokemon Go. So that Android users in Indonesia can now play this game. For this one news is still confusing. Hopefully this news is not true. Because after all, the enthusiasm of Pokemon fans in Indonesia is among the biggest. But the latest news circulating in the mass media (TV and newspapers), the solution to this problem is that Niantic.Inc will ask google to block the keyword ".<a href="http://www.akozo.net/2016/07 /download-pokemon-go-apk-for-android.html" target="_blank">Pokemon Go Apk</a>. " on .search engines. Maybe this one is more logical.. (In my opinion....)<br />
Second, is the news that is a little bit weird. It's ridiculous. Although some include news sources, but sometimes irrelevant sources. As is often spread on social media and becomes viral quickly. This Hoax Info sometimes makes people angry, or even laughs because of the silliness of this hoax news spreader. The following is a ridiculous bin hoax info circulating regarding Pokemon Go
1. Teenagers Kill Siblings Because of Pokemon Go
It shocked the virtual world, when news spread about a teenager from Florida, Timmy Richard (15) who had the heart to kill his 13-year-old brother because he "accidentally" deleted Pokemon Go data on his cellphone. After being traced, it turned out that the source of the news was from.CartellPress.com.. A site known as .satire news and often creates .hoax news to lure social media users to click on ads on this site. According to news circulating, this site has also clarified and apologized for an editorial error on one of its .pages.
2. Pokemon Go Is America's Spy Tool
Until now this news is still viral on BBM and Facebook social media. I do not know what underlies the spread of this news. Just take advantage of Pokemon Go's .uforia moments or have done a basic analysis. Because this news spread at this time. Meanwhile, the Augmented Reality technology used by Pokemon Go has been used in the previous .Niantic, Inc. game product, namely .Ingress, and has been refined to support the Pokemon Go game. If indeed the technology in the Pokemon Go game is a means of American spying, it means that it has been done for a long time. Because the game .Ingress (though not as popular as Pokemon Go) is also played by Android users in Indonesia. This hoax has even been reported on a television station with a source present
Scientific explanations are also described on the .cissrec.org site. That Pokemon Go doesn't suggest/force users to install.run at startup which is the basis for..malware .in .hacking devices, including mobile phones. As for Pokemon Trainer itself, data from the user's device is directly sent to https://sso.pokemon.com/sso/ which is the official .server from the developer, not through a third party
The third fact described by .cissrec.org is that the amount of data sent by mobile devices to the official .Niantic server .every time a player gets a monster .is not more than 50 KB.. Logically, the transfer of data files of that size will not be enough to send images with good quality. It can be proven when we take pictures with mobile phones, the data files created range from up to 3 Mb. Very far when compared to the amount of data sent to the main server
3.Pokemon Equals "I'm Jewish"
This is getting more and more eccentric, the news that spreads in chains through Facebook makes us shake our heads. How foreign languages ​​are played for certain purposes. Sometimes they don't even understand where the .hoax spreader gets the source.
Actually this issue has long been exhaled and disappeared. Now this issue is spreading again for whatever purpose. The actual meaning of Pokemon is as follows:
The word .Pokemon in English is an abbreviation of two words: namely the word (.Poke) which is an abbreviation of the word (.Pocket), which means ; Pockets/pockets. And the word (.Mon) which is an abbreviation of the word (.Monster), which means ; Monsters. So it means pocket monster. The point is an expression of how small these monsters are to fit in a pocket.
As for the name .Pikachu .who is a famous character in this cartoon, it is also formed from two words: (.Pika) in Japanese, which means shining. While the word (.Chu) is an expression of the sounds that come out of the mouth of a mouse. Why is it called Pikachu? Because (this character) is shaped like a mouse armed with an electric shock.
The funny thing is, this news was spread by someone who is anti-certain group, through Facebook which incidentally was made by one of the people from the hated group.
Despite everything, the existence of the Pokemon Go Game does bring problems and benefits. This game can indeed be said to have a dangerous element because it takes the user out of the house and makes the player's attention decrease due to the excitement of the game
But on the other hand, this game is reported to be the latest therapeutic method that can motivate people with depression, spectrum disorders, anxiety disorders, paranoia, social phobias to do outdoor activities and stop confining themselves in their rooms.
Whatever media we use, when we use it outside the limits of reasonableness, it will certainly be very detrimental to ourselves and others. But when we are able to control ourselves to use all media fairly in proportion, it will certainly provide reasonable benefits
