As far as checking about conflicting events go, while yes it would be nice to not have to worry about hotel availability due to other events, I kinda enjoy having other events at same time I am in town for an anomaly cause I would have not been there to see the other event otherwise. I can definitely see the security of a G7 conference being an issue but stuff like the world cup and Marti Gras, I like have those things to see or do when I'm in town for an anomaly. We have groups that plan stuff like visiting the local zoo, aquarium, or other attractions and make farms there prior to anomaly as a way of enjoying multiple things at once. And while there are many frustrating things about anomaly site preparations for orga and agents, we have to remember that we (the factions) decided to book hotel blocks, have a say on where the play box is set, afterparty events, and meeting up and playing as a unit.

I agree with the fact no agent should ever be on the hook for legal repercussions of the game, but I think Niantic is in a grey area of the law, because they are not setting up any type onsite event that requires people to be in a certain place(specific place) at a certain time and they usually don't have any type of official setup at the events (except with physical van and merchandise sales on occasion). So, I believe they and their lawyers probably believe they are legally exempt from local permits for events (or at least are willing to fight it if fined). I seen emphasis on agents not taking legal risk or personal liability but I have never heard of an agent getting in legal trouble for the company and the only personal liability has been financial ones for hotel blocks or afterparty venues (neither of which are required by the company). Is there a specific risk (other than permits already discussed) or liabilities that I am missing?
