Pokemon Go banned in the Pentagon

Love it or hate it - you can't deny the viral power of Pokemon Go.

Bourne-like it has infiltrated weddings, funeral parlours, gyms and now it has infiltrated the Pentagon.

Employees in the building are not allowed to play the game within the Defense Department buildings for fear that the game is being used as a means of spying on activities or exposing top secret military tactics.

The US is not the only country saying no to Pokemon Go. In Russia, Putin wants to ban the app due to suspected links to the CIA. While, the Israeli government has also cracked down on the game, banning it from being played on base or being installed on government devices.

Will Ireland be the next country to ban crack down on Pikachu and friends?
