Why exclude PUBG and Z00M from the banned Chinese app? This is the reason

New Delhi, June 30, 2020, Tuesday

Many are surprised that the 59 Chinese apps banned by the central government do not include the most popular mobile game Pubji and the Zoom app.

Most people believe that Pubji is a Chinese app. People are asking the question why these two apps have been excluded.

However, according to media reports, the most popular pubji game among youngsters is made by a South Korean company, inspired by the 2000 Japanese film Battle Royale. It also has a Chinese connection. Pubji has the involvement of a Chinese gaming company. It has been launched in China with a new name. Thus, a Chinese company is owned by Pubji.

Zoom App, on the other hand, is an American company whose founder, Eric Yuan, is an American citizen of Chinese descent. So technically, the Zoom app is not Chinese.
