Agents have reported that new Media can be hacked from the Portal Network.

The researchers Akira Tsubasa (PxA) and Devra Bogdanovich (PxB) discuss the urgent need for collaboration regarding a frequency-based attack on Machina Portals. Akira has already implemented a theoretical paper's concept on harmonic communication in viruses and demonstrates its immediate effects on the red Portals. They express concerns about the long-term impact and adaptation of Machina, likening it to biological viruses.

Despite uncertainties, they agree to work together to address the imminent threat and potential origins of Machina, planning to use the XM resonance from the Kobe anomaly tomorrow for a network-wide attack against Machina.

Tomorrow is the start of Phase 3 of the Ctrl anomaly! Niantic has updated the store with the new Akira Tsubasa 2023 medal and the new Yuri Nagassa 2023 medal.

Both medals cost 30,800 CMU (about 23€) and come with 10 Rare Kinetic Capsules each. Buying one kit would therefore give you enough Kinetic Capsules to complete the Discoverie Kinetic Challenge next month if you don't have enough.

In addition, the ADA & Jarvis pack is also online again. One pack costs 3,000 CMU and contains one ADA Refactor and one JARVIS Virus. This pack has no purchase limit.

@IUENG
Niantic has acknowledged the issue that prevents devices that don't support the newest Lightship AR from scanning a portal and hanks agents for their reports as they are investigating.

If you experience the same issue, feel free to leave a comment in the bug report: https://community.ingress.com/en/discussion/comment/191863/#Comment_191863

@IUENG
Phase three of the #CTRL Anomaly is live!

After a fierce battle in phase two, the Enlightened have maintained their lead, but the Resistance remains unwavering in their determination to turn the tide. As the #Ctrl Anomaly moves to Kobe, Japan, the stage is set for epic clashes and strategic maneuvers.

As of 16:38 UTC today, the last Machina portal has decayed. There will be no more Machina spawns or spreads until after the first round of the Discoverie Anomaly next month.

Agents are reporting mixed results when capturing Portals that Machina decayed on, with some reporting that it counts as reclaiming it (+1 on the Machina Portals Reclaimed stat and +1331AP) with others reporting that it doesn't count.

@IUENG

Niantic has published the release notes for Ingress Prime v2.125.1!

In this release, the Niantic Profile you can access through your Agent Profile has been updated to the latest version. In addition, a speculative fix has been implemented regarding some XM animation issues.

PSA for Agents on Android: In the newest update to Ingress (2.125.1), for some devices, it appears as though the permissions to use your media storage (Photos & videos + Music & audio) have been removed from the application.
For this reason, if you try to perform any scan, you will see this notice.

We recommend that Android-using Agents DO NOT update to this version if they scan portals frequently, until Niantic fixes this issue.
