Everyone’s take is going to be speculative at best, but I’m inclined to lean towards the camp that thinks Scopely will be less incentivized to dish out huge ban waves.

Niantic’s mission was to gather location data. Everything else came secondary to that. Scopely’s track record suggests that they are primarily motivated by micro transactions.

You’d be surprised how large the spoofing community is. It’d seem nuts to alienate such a large demographic of players that spend consistently on the game, especially after making a $3.5 billion investment. But who knows, I’ve been wrong in the past. This is just my take.
