 Pokemon GO and Niantic.

Pokemon GO is not revolutionary. It is far from the first MMO (massively multiplayer online game) or the first game with augmented reality, or a new idea to combine these two elements to mobile gaming. However, the game creates a huge phenomenon, perhaps even more than World of Warcraft in 2004.

Niantic Labs, who created Pokemon GO, is not a newcomer to this particular market. Started in 2010, Niantic also published Ingress, which was the last the most popular augmented reality-MMO play. In Ingress, real people have joined one of the two teams fought for control of the cities capturing power lines, portals and power links, using a map on their phone screens.

What is privacy?

Concerns about privacy were raised immediately after Pokemon GO was released. The application requires a lot of access to your cell phone, including contacts, Bluetooth, GPS, storage, camera, and just about everything else.

Initially, the application has requested full access to the Google user accounts, including Google Drive document viewer, permission to send mail on your behalf, and the ability to read the story of your email search. Niantic, however, insists it was a mistake, and that the data of its users has not been screened or accessible.

You can not call a Pokemon Go undercover government oversight conspiracy, but the game will affect even those who are not, should their home become a PokeGym in the game, for example.
