TL;DR; It’s not cheating and its not unfair because everyone can use it. It’s on Niantic to ‘fix’ it by changing the mechanics so that it can’t be done.

“Hanke’s remarks on services like Poke Radar are alarming, though.”

I hope this guy doesn’t get fired. The only reasonable purpose for complaining about this would be to keep children from seeing it... but considering this game is T for Violence / Blood / Partial Nudity / Alcohol Use, that reason doesn’t seem very valid.
