Weird angle but I also think this is a result of big business ruining video games and not understanding at all how to make a profit from them.

I am sorry but if the route to monetizing a fuckton of people obsessed with a game running around in real life visiting real places involves needing to turn to using that data to train murder drones to make a profit..... you are a pathetically bad game designer and don't understand the value you have been handed.

Make better video games, losers.
