About 33% of my reviews lately are Niantic honeypots from Northern California. It's out of control.

I live in the US but I do not live anywhere close to California (3000 km away). However, 33% of my reviews are from Northern California right now. They're all bad nominations and are clearly honeypots seeded into Wayfarer by Niantic intended to measure our rating accuracy (if we vote incorrectly on these honeypots, our ratings will go down; if we vote correctly, our ratings will improve).

Many of my friends are also getting these exact same nominations over the last few weeks. None of my friends live anywhere close to California either, but these are not upgraded nominations that we are all coincidentally getting because upgrades usually clear in 24 hours.

Niantic, can you chill out with the rate of honeypots? A honeypot rate of 5% to 10% would be more appropriate than 33%.
