"[Locked accounts bug] Niantic responded, accounts are being reactivated!"

#PokemonGO: u/NianticGeorge, a Niantic employee somewhat active on Reddit, replied to today's big thread about the "Failed to get game data from server" login bug.In his reply he confirmed they started restoring locked accounts:We have begun the process of restoring access to those accounts that are unable to log in and resolving the issue with affected Pokémon in Gyms. Please bear with us, as this will take some time to fully complete.And the first confirmations are already appearing!Gyms seem to be unlocked already, even if the player previously "blocking" them is still locked out from their account (that's the situation in my community and others.) Hopefully this will be over in a matter of a few days, that's a BIG relief and another win for our fantastic community!Let's hope that players who had to endure this game-breaking bug will be compensated adequately for the time and progress lost, but all in all that's FANTASTIC NEWS! via /r/TheSilphRoad http://bit.ly/2HlHMYR
