Of course Pogo will be blamed but if it wasn't that it would have been another app. Lucky they didn't get caught using grindr

No the reporter admits as much. It was Pokemon Go. I'm just amused the guy giving the briefing immediately knew what was up. That man has children.

I will wait for more details but if this turns out to be what I suspect it is I will be speechless

Don't go to Europe until at least the end of this year.

Nah. I wanna be on the news.

My advice would be to not visit Earth until the human issue is dealt with.
