Here are some curious facts about Pokemon Go game - and these are not tricks to increase his level of play, but details of the operation of the project. Details can be nothing to reduce your urge to get started in pursuit of Pokémon, or play in general.
The Pokémon Go project was
jointly created by The Pokémon Company, Nintendo and Niantic, a former
subsidiary of Google. Niantic was founded by John Hanke, also founder of the
company Keyhole, Inc. specializes in creating geospatial maps. The company was
funded by In-Q-Tel, a US private equity fund set up by the CIA in 1999.
At the time, several tasks were completed:
At the time, several tasks were completed:
- Mapping the planet
regularly updated, including motorways and all major objects of urban
infrastructure in general,
- Robot-vehicles put their nose in every corner of the world and have mapped entire cities, streets ...
One problem remained: how to enter the homes of citizens, basements, barracks and so on? And now Niantic launches awesome and viral game based on the principle of augmented reality. Once it was installed and has allowed him access to his camera, his microphone, his gyroscope, GPS and all its connected devices, user's smartphone vibrates and indicates that several Pokémon are nearby.

What happens next? The
application congratulations on your first win because she knows how important
it is for the player to be encouraged. Then it requires you shot your first
Pokémon captured all angles - and therefore obtained the photos from your
apartment in detail, including contact details and the smartphone tilt angle.
Congratulations! It seems you just shot your apartment, the secret services you will certainly appreciate ...
About the rules of use have to accept to install the game contain interesting information. Thus, Niantic informs you in these official terms:
"We cooperate with the government, the competent authorities or private parties to enforce and comply with the law. We may disclose any information about you (or your child allowed) in our possession or under our control the government, the competent authorities or to private parties if, in our sole discretion, we would think it necessary or appropriate. "

"
Developers specify for what
purpose they can do: "(a) to respond to claims and legal process
(including subpoenas); (B) protect our property, our rights and our security
and property rights, and the security of a third party or the general public;
and (c) to identify and stop any activity we would consider illegal, unethical,
or liable to legal action. "
But who reads the rules of use? You press "I agree" and we hurry to start the game.
However, the rules prove to be a very exciting reading. They report that such servers Pokémon Go automatically record certain information on how a person uses its services and is used to administer these services and analyze (small detail: they may use third parties to perform this analysis).
And icing on the cake:
"The information that we collect from our users, including personal data, are considered assets of the company."

That's what you accept in
fact installing the app.
"If we were redeemed by a third party as a result of a transaction such as a merger, acquisition or sale of a business, or if our assets were bought by a third party due to bankruptcy or cessation of trade, a or all of our assets, including your personal data (or your authorized child) could be disclosed or transferred to a third party buyer as part of the transaction, "continues the rules.
Imagine this: the information wants to know what is happening, for example ... the Elysee Palace. And a minute later the deputies, journalists, employees in it who are glued to their laptops that report their number of Pokémon are in place ...
You know the rest.
