Original Note:
The functionality in question is not part of the WeChat app itself, but a downloadable add-on (called mini-programs) that users can choose to install. The people appearing on the map are there as part of court-ordered punishment for failing to repay debts. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-01-24/new-wechat-app-maps-deadbeat-debtors-in-china/10739016
