Currently, Apple and Google payment systems are not available in Russia due to financial sanctions, although this has nothing to do with Niantic.
Also, in the future, even if Niantic's servers for Russia are not shut down, if logins to Apple and Google are shut down, players in Russia will not be able to play the game.
If that happens, there will be people here who can satisfy their own emotions.
But it is better not to delete wayspot itself, which is the subject of this forum.
You should not delete the wayspot itself, which is the subject of this forum, because that wayspot is generated by the facts of history.
History is a discipline that aims to learn from the past, think about the present, and apply it to the future.
If we cover up the events of the past, we lose one of the opportunities to learn from a wayspot the history of the mistakes humanity has made.
I firmly believe it was setup for failure, sadly due to this being a sensitive topic. I think it’s something for Niantic to figure out. As long as they see that we are all disgusted about it @FurtadoV-PGO we are getting the point across & honestly that’s all that matters.
Again, I'm not interested wither way, but niantic did delete waypoints celebrating the confederacy despite thats historical significance, the good and the lots of bad, so it seems a tad hypocritical to only do one cause of blm but not delete anything related to putin who started a war

It’s not. I sent @NianticGiffard a message as well. It should’ve never been posted
All you will see here is emotional arguments.
We should only speak with reason.

The beginning of the topic had a pleaseble discussion related to Niantic. Unfortunatelly, a lot of members ruined the proposal of the topic lately
