Toronto authorities are asking the makers of the Pokemon Go mobile game to remove beacons from an already-busy downtown ferry terminal, reports Canadian Press (CP). The popular digital game has players roam outdoors in search of virtual monsters set in various real locations.
The Jack Layton ferry Terminal is the site of almost a dozen digital beacons that have drawn many players. Matthew Cutler of the parks department told CP he is glad the game has brought more people outdoors, but he says it has created “significant challenges” for ferry operations.
Other individuals and companies have made similar requests to have virtual creatures removed from their properties.
