They never charged anyone a penny for it while they were part of Google, and it was well known that you were "paying" for the game by collecting data for Google Maps as you played.

After all, the concept of originated from the Google Maps: Pokémon Challenge, an April Fools' Day project released by Google Maps on April 1, 2014, that was created by Google engineer Tatsuo Nomura.

But it didn't occur to me until now, of course this dataset would be something quite valuable for the police and military to co-opt.
