Pokemon GO Developer Settles Lawsuit
Did that lawsuit against Pokemon Go get settled? What was the settlement?
When Pokemon GO was born, the fact that the whole world was the Pokemon world was a big selling point. Every town, every city, and more had Pokemon to find, Pokestops to go to and Gyms to battle at. However, Niantic made a mistake by not looking more closely at where they put certain things. As Pokestops and Gyms were sometimes placed in front of businesses, or in front of houses and other such places. These angry owners sued Niantic, and after a couple of years, the lawsuit has been settled.
According to The Verge, and others, anyone who does not want their homes or places of business to be PokeStops and gyms can file a motion with the company and it’ll be removed with 15 days. The people who filed the lawsuit will be paid for various things including their legal fees.
And Niantic will no doubt be more detailed in their placement of such things.
