Pokemon GO signs aren't really all that uncommon in popular places. The Botanical Gardens in my hometown has signs up to keep people from wandering around the property and damaging rare plants. Zoos are probably a similar story. It's not so much taking over the world as much as it is maintaining players to ensure non-players can still enjoy themselves at the same location.

(It was in general discussion, which I assume is discussion for anything?)

I don't remember seeing any Pokemon signs before Pokemon GO came out, and Pokemon wasn't that popular at the time, but now ever since the release of Pokemon GO, almost everyone knows what a "Pokemon" is.
