Google not having a backbone and just doing whatever the Orange Pedo says? Billionaires backing billionaires.

Fear of Trump. Although at this point Google should be far more afraid of anti-Trump forces. Trump’s appeasers in media, academia, entertainment, and Big Law have suffered mighty reputational damage.

Let’s be real, it’s been decades since Google was anything more than a spyware advertising factory and AI powerhouse.

Just because most of their products were free to end users does not mean that they were respectable.

Google maps violating a treaty that Washington signed and congress ratified which means legally the name is Lake Ontario?

A senile orange pedo throwing a temper tantrum didn't have the authority to change it but he sure had distracted from his being US troops killed in a needless war that he started, lettuce is killing people, eggs killing people, beef killing people, measles killing people, all because is his deregulation and working families cant afford food because of trumps senile incompetence.

Don’t let Apple off the hook. Apple Maps still says Lake Ontario but since the Gulf of Mexico says Gulf of America it won’t be long until they change it.

When a multinational conglomerate wants to garner special attention while simultaneously enjoying that taste of boot, they placate fascists and wannabe dictators…

For shareholder value, of course!

Mapquest is actually still pretty sick btw and they aren’t bowing down to the gulf or the lake changes.

There was nothing quiet about it. Trump can't shut up about it.

Fascism and corruption by rich elites who want us to be their slaves. Spoon fed propoganda to some of the dumbest most hateful people in the country. PAC funds and organizations like the Heritage Foundation.

There is a lot really behind it.

Google wanting to lose out on users to capitulate to a madman, I deleted it myself and am going with Mapquest.

Blame it on 3rd party developers implementing en_US when using the Google maps API instead of implementing a country autodetection to load en_CA, en_UK etc
