Developers of "Pokemon GO" have confirmed that they have launched a new anti-bot or anti-hack tool within the game. This is to further prevent players who are using cheats or hacks.
According to Niantic's Community representative "NianticGeorge" via Reddit, the company is dedicated to preserving the state of "Pokemon GO" and their players. Trainers who will violate the terms of service of "Pokemon GO" by using software cheats or hacks will have their gameplay affected. Banned accounts may not also be able to see all the Pokemon in their area.
"NianticGeorge" also stated that they cannot discuss the newly implemented systems. However, he assured that they are continuously filtering new ways to make sure that the integrity of "Pokemon GO" will be in order and to keep it fair and fun for all players.
According to Daily Star, the game's new anti-hack tool works by blinding accounts that are detected with third party trackers. These blinded accounts will not be able to see any rare Pokemon spawns in their location.
However, according to Pokemon GO Hub, the new anti-bot or anti-hook tool is merely a minor fix for the moment. It only targets the accounts that were formerly detected and flagged as suspicious, and unfortunately, the new security system has been defeated by some trackers by making new accounts.
All of these news about the latest updates to "Pokemon GO" also follow a rare and brief event that involved the release of "Pokemon GO" promo codes. However, the event was only for Android Phones.
It is really good to know that Niantic is actively working on making "Pokemon GO" a fair game. Many fans of the game hope that this will be the start of several measures in improving the "Pokemon GO" gym.
