Reciew bomb it to oblivion. Google sides with fascism. Next stop map out where minorities are (lgbtq, unregistered foreigners etc.)…
shameless butt kissing
Google has no credibility except that of complicity.
Public act of fealty. Google has officially kissed the ring of the mad king. Realize what that means for the way they handle business moving forward.
They’ll still end up like all of Trump’s other business partners in the end. Betrayed, unpaid, and regretful.
I tried to report it in google maps, but it says you can’t report on that area.
Probably just because there are no streets or landmarks there. I went through the “submit feedback” option, it took a screenshot of the Gulf, and let me submit with no issues
Google is helping the rich try to take over the world?
Dam i always thought the richest company on the planet was looking out for the little guy!
Lmao but seriously nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
Ok internet, lets sing a song called “non-google alternative map programs”, ill start.
OpenStreetMap!
(I dont know the rest of the words… Halp)
Magic Earth!
Love them, they almost seem too good to be true
Here Wego (formerly Nokia maps)
Well, I just opened Apple Maps and typed in “gulf of america” and got 0 results. I typed in “gulf of mexico” and got a big bold label across the correct location saying “Gulf of Mexico”.
Under Google Maps, for either of them, I get Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America).
Screenshot from Apple Maps just now:
May be time for Android users to switch to iPhone, then?
Or just use any other maps app. You can avoid Google entirely even on Android. Just takes bit of effort.
or just install a non invasive os that doesnt steal your data…
Sure I’ll go support this little caritative company by buying a new ethical phone instead of using e/os or whatever alternatives there is! 😁
That’s because they use open street map (and other providers).
Organic Maps!
This is what I use as well. It even has Open Street Maps profile integration.
I like mapquest
Fuck you Google
When are they changing Lake
MichiganIllinois?Just submitted some feedback.
We must share a brain, because I did the same earlier too.
Well, I called them “dipshit collaborators” but you know.
Submitted as well
Reported and left a one-star review for mislabeled locations.
Google Shadow banned all low reviews about the change and removed the ability to edit the location.
Not surprised.
Alternative can be TomTom AmiGO (nice pun in this matter) for your navigation needs
Well, that’s what it is for 4% of the world’s population. For the rest of the world it’s business as usual as the US is smelling its own farts.
I call it baby bumpers … Google maps has placed baby bumpers on its service for Americans so that they don’t hurt themselves with anger.
From Australia they’re using parenthesis to display it as an uncommon name.
Same in Canada.
They’re doing that in the US as well, but only if you zoom in, weird
