I just don't see how they can enforce this short of forcing OD to shut it down and surely that would involve going to court? -O-

There isn't just OD's, there are apparently a couple of apps and groups. I don't believe they can close it down legally and they cant stop cell coverage either.

So best they get their policing jacked up. They wanted to be in modern world with spa's and hotels etc. Well welcome to modernisation. =O:

I think the problem is being blown out of proportion. Yes, there are crowded sightings but that is normally only during peak seasons and only in the south. -O-

One other thing is that many people worldwide are glued to the apps, sort of like the webcams, for a "fix" daily, which is great! X#X

I reckon most of the 450 000 members are foreigners? -O-

Flutts, I think this is an easy way to shift congestion blame from SP's side, or rather responsibility. The fact is there are too many visitors in Kruger.

And secondly, as said, apps are being targeted for financial property rights reasons by SP, and odie must be made persona non grata before that legal stuff starts. :O^

From here to pariah. Lots of members from these app donated and helped etc. can't recall HR's doing too much apart from being the conduit for the donations to happen to Sanparks. If I recall most was driven by OD and his app. -O-

I remember very well that I stopped donating to the Honorary Ranger, when I found out that it all went into the same cauldron, namely the strongbox of Sanparks O/
