I just searched for "Pokémon GO GPS spoofing" on the 'net.
Looks like this was just a hack in Android where apps were provided with
a spoofed position from the hack instead of the true position determined
by the GPS/GNSS receiver.
So this is quite a different thing than spoofing the real GPS signals,
and it only affects the devices which have that hack installed.
