Pavel Varenka The end of another week is slowly approaching. The new year is in full swing and we are slowly running out of space flight news. Well, it's not that SpaceX isn't sending one spaceship after another into orbit together with NASA, but we've already reported on the planned tests so far, and we have no choice but to return to Earth. But there is a lot going on here as well, especially because of the pandemic and the turbulent mood in the United States, which is bursting at the seams. In particular, we are talking about the postponement of the opening of the Super Nintendo World amusement park and Facebook, which has designated the United States as a risky country, thereby only underlining its sovereignty. Among other things, users on social networks then helped the FBI with the identification of violent protesters.

Amaya Toman We don't just look into the Super Nintendo World park. The Japanese company is closing up shop
Although Disney World and the effects of the ubiquitous pandemic are quite often talked about, we must not forget about the somewhat backward, but extremely popular alternative in Japan, which even overshadows Disney in many ways. We are talking about Super Nintendo World, an amusement park which, as the name already suggests, mainly captures attractions and moments from games from this legendary Japanese company. Just a few weeks ago, it was Nintendo that this popular park, sought after by tourists and locals, would open on February 4. Instead, it canceled its plans and is closing the shop for the time being, mainly because of the unrelenting pandemic that is still raging all over the world.

And it's no wonder, draconian measures are in place all over Europe and the United States, and even though Japan and South Korea have more or less coped with the pandemic, they don't want to take too many risks and open similar events for thousands of people. One way or another, the closing of the park has its advantages, which lie mainly in new attractions and characters from the Nintendo world. For example, Mario Kart and the Yoshi's Adventure-style ride, which is primarily aimed at younger visitors, will make their debut. The creator of Mario, Shigeru Miyamoto, boasted the exciting news in a Nintendo Direct presentation. We'll see when we finally get a full-fledged Japanese experience.
Facebook has leaned heavily on the United States. He called them a risky and dangerous country
Today, there is no doubt that things are really boiling in the United States. Society is divided, Trump supporters are attacking Democratic voters, there are armed clashes, and the attack on the Capitol only underscored the dire situation. Facebook sees it similarly, which in recent months has been trying to cope with the flood of misinformation not only related to the pandemic, but also to the latest events. This is precisely what is used by various manipulators and disinformers who try to get the public on their side and change the way their supporters view the world by providing one-sided information.

And just on the day of the attack on the Capitol, everything only intensified. According to the latest information, reports of violent content jumped tenfold, while misinformation and dangerous or misleading posts increased fourfold. Allegedly, foreign countries started to interfere in the whole thing and only added fuel to the fire, as is the case nowadays. The icing on the cake was the blocking of Donald Trump and the controversy with the social network Parler. So it is not surprising that Facebook has run out of patience, the company has rejected all regulations and decided to label the United States as a dangerous and risky country.

Jiří Filip FBI thanks the public. Users used social media to track down dangerous protesters
Although it might seem that the current social networks are only fueling the chaos and hatred of both camps, they can boast some serious advantages. And one of them is that any event is documented, and even if it is threatened by misinformation and potentially misleading posts, true content still outweighs unsubstantiated information. Thanks to this, social media users managed to track down dangerous and violent protesters who used the attack on the Capitol to incite violence and threaten others. The FBI was involved in the entire incident, and although it has almost unlimited resources to identify similar individuals, it does not have the time investment to track down the suspects.

However, the attack on the Capitol was so chaotic, unclear and shocking that even the FBI was unable to track down all the individuals who caused the death of several people and the injury of dozens of others. So the detectives involved the public in the case and, as is usually the case on the Internet, users immediately caught on to everything, who began searching for dangerous attackers and sharing photos and videos that could incriminate them. So it is not surprising that the FBI solemnly boasted a photo of several captured on Twitter and called on users to continue their search and try to bring to justice the rest of the mad mob that rushed to the Capitol a few days ago.
