    Is Pokemon just going to act as a thinly veiled privacy invasion tool?

    Pokemon Go encourages you to share your location at all times. Now they want to know when you’re sleeping.

      I don’t totally understand the reasoning behind Pokemon Sleep needing to be a thing, but Pokemon Go’s entire core premise requires knowing your location in order for the gameplay to even work at all, so I could understand having an issue with wanting to share your location, but damn, that’s pretty much the one case where that’d be understandable.

          Yeah. In retrospect, I think I was wrong. It would be “save $500 to unlock” on categories where the “50% off” version is still a 200% markup.
