This is literally what I built my first company around starting in 2012, when Niantic was still working on Ingress

I describe it here during 500 Startups demo day: https://youtu.be/3oYHxdL93zE?si=cvLob-NHNEIJqYrI&t=6411

I further described it on the Planet of the Apps episode 1

Here's my patent from 2018: https://patents.google.com/patent/US10977818B2/en

So. I'm not really sure what to do here given that this was exactly and specifically what we were building and frankly had a lot of success in actually building.

Quite frustrating
