"Niantic reversing the distance in NZ but not the US proves that they don't actually care about player health, only avoiding legal troubles and bad press."

#PokemonGO: So Niantic reversed the distance change when NZ had 1 confirmed locally transmitted case but refused to do the same when the US just had over 250k new cases and 1k+ deaths in one day (an over 2000% increase in about one month).This basically proves that Niantic doesn't actually care about player health/safety, but only local laws (e.g. lockdown or not) so they don't run into legal troubles or get into media's crosshairs. All those statements about caring about the players and the community were nothing but PR talk and virtue signaling.This is not at all surprising for a corporation of course, but it's still disappointing and despicable. via /r/pokemongo https://ift.tt/3k9D94m
