A New York State assemblyman from Brooklyn is reportedly “pondering” doing something in the Albany legislature (lolz) about all these kids and their new-fangled Pokémon Gos. Assembly man’s man Felix Ortiz clearly has his finger on the pulse in this interview with Politico:

Everything comes down to people’s responsibility as well as corporate responsibility. Every single one of us who might want to play this game have to be very cautious. Who’s sending what, and what is the follow up?….

“My big call is to the company, to watch what is happening,” Ortiz warns. “They should be vigilant before they become liable. If it’s an issue they can pull out and fix, they won’t be liable. Otherwise, I will introduce legislation.” And you know what happens when Ortiz introduces legislation… he gets to see his name in print….
