‘Pokémon Go’: Government Surveillance App?






‘Pokémon Go’: Government Surveillance App?


July 14th, 2016

For commentary on this, I’d mainly offer my 2012 piece: Ingress: Google’s Strange New Game

Flash forward to 2016 and Pokémon Go offers the same soft control, but now with mass appeal.

You might be thinking, mass appeal? What? With 10-year-olds?

It turns out that in the swipetarded zombie apocalypse, “Pokémon Go tops Twitter’s daily users, sees more engagement than Facebook.”

Who cares? What’s the point?

Essentially, spooks can get eyes-on places by directing swarms of zombies with mobile phones to seek out digital creatures and baubles at desired locations. Sure catch your Squirtle—while pointing your camera at a Hell’s Angels headquarters, for example.

I’d also recommend my ancient (2007) post, The American Culture Bomb: Satire from the Onion and a Long Forgotten U.S. Army War College Essay, which is more important than ever.

“Our victims volunteer.”
