 Wino, one of India's vernacular gaming platform, is taking rival gaming platform Mobile Premier League (MPL) to court filed a lawsuit in Delhi High Court against gaming unicorn MPL over alleged copyright violation. In a statement, wino said that the matter is now listed for further proceedings on July 4. Wino claims that MPL copied its patented proprietary game 'World War'. The lawsuit claims that MPL's game also follows identical format as World war. They further told that MPL took down the format completely from their platform on March 28 after it was brought to their notice. However, in a complete face, MPL allegedly re-commenced using the entire identical format with each of the distinctive features in use by wino, by April 2. This time, while MPL is said to have renamed their tournament as ‘Team Clash’, but the notifications/pop-ups sent to users still used 'World War'.
Wino sent a legal notice to MPL and when MPL refused to cease and desist from taking down the format, Wino was forced to file a suit seeking injunction to restrain MPL from continuing to use the format on account of copyright infringement, passing off and unfair competition.
After the matter was heard at some length, MPL’s counsel stated that the MPL has stopped using the mark World War and was willing to give an undertaking that the mark World War shall not be used with the Defendant’s game/ offering. Concerning the other allegations made by wino, MPL’s Counsel made a statement that MPL shall attempt to resolve the matter through negotiations with wino.
The matter is now listed for further proceedings on the July 4.
Wino says that commencing in April 2020, the game currently has close to 80 million registered users. The company has applied for a patent for the invention, copyright registration in relation to the expression of the Format, and trademark for 'World War'.

 

Many parents feel guilty when their children play video games for hours on end. Some even worry it could make their children less clever. And, indeed, that’s a topic scientists have clashed over for years.

In our new study, we investigated how video games affect the minds of children, interviewing and testing more than 5,000 children aged ten to 12. And the results, published in Scientific Reports, will be surprising to some.

Children were asked how many hours a day they spent on social media, watching videos or TV, and playing video games. The answer was: a lot of hours. On average, children spent two and a half hours a day watching online videos or TV, half an hour online, and one hour of playing video games.

In total, that’s four hours a day for the average child and six hours for the top 25% – a large portion of a child’s free time. And other reports found that this has increased dramatically over the decades. Screens were around in previous generations, but now they truly define childhood.

Is that a bad thing? Well, it’s complicated. There could be both benefits and drawbacks for the developing minds of children. And these might depend on the outcome you are looking at. For our study, we were specifically interested in the effect of screen time on intelligence – the ability to learn effectively, think rationally, understand complex ideas, and adapt to new situations.

Intelligence is an important trait in our lives and highly predictive of a child’s future income, happiness and longevity. In research, it’s often measured as performance on a wide range of cognitive tests. For our study, we created an intelligence index from five tasks: two on reading comprehension and vocabulary, one on attention and executive function (which includes working memory, flexible thinking and self-control), one assessing visual-spatial processing (such as rotating objects in your mind), and one on learning ability over multiple trials.

This is not the first time someone has studied the effect of screens on intelligence, but research, so far, has produced mixed results. So, what’s special this time? The novelty of our study is that we took genes and socioeconomic backgrounds into account. Only a few studies so far have considered socioeconomic status (household income, parental education and quality), and no study had accounted for genetic effects.

Genes matter because intelligence is highly heritable. If unaccounted for, these factors could mask the true effect of screen time on children’s intelligence. For example, children born with certain genes might be more prone to watch TV and, independently, have learning issues. The lottery of genetics is a major confounder in any psychological process, but until recently this has been hard to account for in scientific studies due to the heavy costs of genome analysis and technological limitations.

The data we used for our study is part of a massive data collection effort in the US to better understand childhood development: the Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development project. Our sample was representative of the US in terms of race, ethnicity and socioeconomic status.

The results

We found that when we first asked the child at age ten how much they played, both watching videos and online were linked to below-average intelligence. Meanwhile, gaming wasn’t linked with intelligence at all. These results of screen time are mostly in line with previous research. But when we followed up at a later date, we found that gaming had a positive and meaningful effect on intelligence.
