Pokemon Go

It is if you used a gmail account to verify for the login (can use other ways though). The app inadvertently gave the developers full access to accounts. (emails, google drive, etc.) I think more was made of it than it really is though. Obviously it needs fixed, but the company who made this game is a skunk works project of Google themselves. If it was some new or indie developer I'd be a bit more worried, but I am not to concerned about some massive breach here. In reality most people's Gmail (and email in general) accounts are at risk of being hacked by bad people anyways because of weak passwords, yet most don't care.
