This article has been updated with a statement of Supercell. Please scroll down to read it.
King shock, shock manufacturers successes Supercell, it's kind of a big deal. The application freemium, a mobile strategy game, to play the technically free, but has a number of options in the microtransactions in January 2016 and launched by now doing more than a quarter of a million dollars in sales alone every day in the United States.
More than 25,000 people, to make download every day both to play the game against friends and strangers in the fight in the map for the sand. One possibility for the user of the application is clans, private groups, to form its members, can regularly play against each other in a friendly competition while they are being watched by others of the same clan. It is, I suppose, the members of the exclusive club in a can join-person experience, where the cards can be exchanged between individuals, to increase the overall strength of the clan.
At least this is what I could find on the Internet. I do not start to play Clash Royale shortly. Not least because of the hatred of the plane that is in some of these clans festering away.
An anonymous source has brought into the world game development VICE that "freedom of expression" are many examples of anti-Semitic in the game within these clans that came to light through his new tournament feature. Says our contact:
"As a fan of the game, which was prepared to use the new functionality, so I clicked the first tournament on Monday morning. I was surprised that it was by a clan called" was performed BadNewsForJews ". When you click Details, I saw your Clan description is quick search "of the oven is open, all Shmuel will be able to welcome to burn." was published some 60 examples of extreme antisemites clan name in the party Supercell presented, it is believed that many long-established ".
VICE tried Supercell for comments on this subject, email and Twitter, but so far the Finnish study did not react to contact. Our source also provided images of racist clans - "Burn Black, for example - and others proclaim that" Hhiittller (sic) has not done anything wrong "and that another clan is new, the" cost of If this holla. "The jokes are that as well as about funny as crushed toe. (and seriously, I hit a mine last week and remains totally fucked, it's not funny at all.)
These are just a handful of screens that have been sent, illustrate the speech of hatred between King Clash clans. The others are better.
Cases of sedition punishable by up to four years in prison if she is exacerbated by Finnish law. This can cover racism, agitation on nationality or religion, sexual orientation or disability. It is not known exactly where the responsibility for what is hate speech - Supercell with themselves, with users of the application or any other person - seen but we have in the past that Twitter, engage that close he looks lazy accounts , In May, the social platform has been exposed rapper Azealia Banks account after a homophobic insults torrent former Singer Zayn Malik from One Direction to steer. It is not too far seem - the hair while Supercell could do the same with the Royal Clash accounts.
