    Just to add to the user sentiment here that this should require an explicit opt in, there's potentially a legal argument that in the EU and UK it must be opt in as it reveals personally identifiable information in an additional way, which requires an explicit opt in under the GDPR legislation.

    I'd recommend consulting a specialist GDPR lawyer before rolling this out in Europe as-is. It's unlikely to be much of an issue in itself, but if Niantic get the book thrown at them over things like not publishing Pokemon lootbox odds or adding VAT after the fact to event tickets, this could get added to the list of charges.
