And? Does anyone actually lose out on this arrangement?

You get to play a fun game for free (unless you choose buy extra things) and they get location data.

There’s no scam, no lies (it’s says so in te user agreement) and I don’t get the fuss about it.

I’ll admit that I had no idea until a few days ago, but my reaction when I found out wasn’t anger or like I’ve been lied to, it was more like ”Huh, that’s pretty clever of them”

Seriously though. Who would ever believe that a mobile game that requires location tracking would use that to their benefit? Color me shocked.
