Authorities say a Florida man fired shots at two late-night "Pokemon Go" players in a car outside his house but no one was injured.
The homeowner who shot at the teens has a different account of what happened early Saturday. When interviewed by deputies, the homeowner said he was woken up by a loud noise outside of his home and spotted a white car with its brake lights on in the street outside his house. That's when he grabbed his handgun and went outside. He recalled hearing someone say something to the effect of "did you get anything?" Then he said he stepped in front of the car and said not to move.
The car, he said, accelerated toward him. He fled from the street and shot at the car several times as it sped off.
The game was developed by the same guy/company that was involved in Google Earth, and the 3-D imagery of buildings from the sat images. Both Google Earth and Pokemon Go were funded in part by the CIA.
Is it possible that every bit of camera feed shot while playing pokemon go is sucked up into an NSA server farm and is geo tagged?
Later if intelligence needs ground level info for a tagged location they have on demand video of the area.

You must be a player.......else you wouldn’t sound so much like Obama or Hillary
#1 No.
#2 Is there anything I said that was untrue? No? Well on then.

Can't tell if anything you said is untrue unless what I said becomes fact instead of the potential I labeled it.
You casually discount that getting used to strange folks doing strange activities as a possible desensitizing of folks who might normally be more alert - why is that important to your slant on it?
I prefer to play it safer by being aware of anything that may help the bad guys - even if 99% of them are just immature folks with nothing better to do and who enjoy the socialization of it...
It’s not illegal to be stopped in a street at 0200. It *is* illegal, however, to fire shots at a departing car...
“You casually discount that getting used to strange folks doing strange activities”
Yeah I DO casually discount cranks coming up with goofy scenarios in the head to justify thinking that pulling guns on people that aren’t breaking the law is OK.
Like who the hell needs a cell phone game to sneak around at night and break into homes, as if THAT stuff hasn’t happened since before last week.
No one is getting desensitized by this game. It is just the hot little fad of the summer and everyone is losing their minds over it.
“I prefer to play it safer by being aware of anything that may help the bad guys -”
Yeah, ok. I’m glad I dont live in such a paranoid state.
Ohhh the army of “bad guys” are feeling their strength grow with Pokemon Go!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess I also waste my time by exercising the 2nd Amendment and carrying.
I feel sort of foolish now......especially since it's obvious that the bad guys haven't actually leveraged any such cavalier attitudes among the sheep.
“It’s not illegal to be stopped in a street at 0200. It *is* illegal, however, to fire shots at a departing car...”
In our discussion, there would be no shots fired at a departing car ...
I was driving to work this morning in the dark. I came alongside a car and the whole interior was a glow. Driver had a tablet affixed to the center of his steering wheel. He was driving 65MPH on an interstate, in the dark, it was raining and he was playing pokemon. I couldn’t believe it.
Hard time selling that as self-defense or defense of property...
It sounds like the kids have a good argument that THEY were defending themselves when they accelerated toward the homeowner - if they really did that.
