Reinstate Pokevision for PokemonGo

The Issue

Since the launch of PokemonGo, the inbuilt "footprint locator" for pokemons was unreliable. The creators of Pokevision added much value to the game by providing us players with reliable maps and locations for pokemon. Niantic argues, that the maps take away from the game by giving players locations of pokemon, however, for many the maps were a reason to go out and explore areas around their hometowns, villages and even places they would not normally visit. We, the undersigned, would like for Niantic to remove the cease and dessist order placed on pokevision and to allow players to enjoy their game to the full extent again.
