This seems to be targeting “watch these ads to get credits” model, which is pretty common in free-to-play games.

One of the funnier/less annoying ads-in-game I’ve seen would be where they fill the spaces where ads normally are, though. Like, if a game had an IRL stadium or street, they would replace the billboard contents with their own ad content instead of putting in ersatz advertising.

Yeah, the attack surface of a locked-up bike is much larger than that of a bike being ridden?

If you don’t want your phone stolen off the bike, a removable bike computer still makes more sense, I think.
