Now there’s a way to tell Pokémon to Go

-

THE creators of Pokémon Go say they’re working to remove realworld locations that don’t wish to be included in the mobile gaming sensation.

Marketing director JC Smith said they’re updating the augmented-reality game so it remains fun for players, but respects the real world.

Several locations, such as the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park in Japan and the Arlington National Cemetery in Washington DC, have asked to be removed from Pokémon Go.

Developer Niantic offers an online form to request exclusions, but changes to the game are not automatic. – ANA-AP
