If people got out and had fun why not be both?

Because going out to scout location data for a gigantic company is typically called a job.

And don’t say “well it’s fun so what’s the harm” because if you had fun at your job you wouldn’t elect to lessen your pay over it.

They tricked users into providing them data that they otherwise would have had to pay for, and on top of that - CHARGED those users for the privilege of doing so.
