It looks like we finally know how this exploit was used! Thanks to YouTuber Sonoroman (check out his channel here):
for investigating this and finding the guy who used it, and thank you to JesusG and Natalia for explaining how the exploit worked and shedding new information about this exploit. I for one am glad he came forward to expose this massive exploit and I hope he gets unbanned soon. No hard feelings from me Niantic needs to do better with their game and hire more engineers to make sure the game works as it’s supposed to.
GBL will be back soon… don’t worry! Love you all (even the haters who like to *try* to hurt my feelings)!
