    I didn't vote in the US presidential election because I'm neither a citizen nor resident, and I'm also banned from entering your borders anyway lol. But sure I'm responsible for your fascism. Sorry for telling you to do effective things instead of checks notes sending pointless messages to underpaid Apple employees assigned to read customer complaints, who will have been told by their bosses to disregard these messages. My bad, don't do any political activity, just complain to corpos instead.

    You do both, brainless bot. Everything. Anything. Make noise wherever and whener you can.

    Why are you so mad? Cosplaying as a communist while you have Trump's dick up your ass and Apple's CEOs down your throat?

    Someone who is this bitchy about someone actually giving a damn has to be playing for the fascist side.

      If you want to go even further, you can grab StreetComplete and have fun wandering your neighborhood while contributing to OpenStreetMap by answering questions for things like business hours, road widths, road materials, etc. Unfortunately, it seems to be android only at the moment and I'm not sure if there's an iOS alternative.

          There is a better chance that user reporting for this will be disabled more so than it is that this would make a difference. You know that right?

          If this latest drama with Apple Maps (and Google Maps) is what pushes someone over the edge to looking for more user respecting options then the people further gone than I would really be comfortable getting used to. Both companies regularly do much more than should do more to turn you off.

                    Truth is, these big companies don't care about you. Or your opinion. You can threaten them about "switching to Linux", but these companies will think twice and say:

                    • if we take this complaint seriously, we might retain one (1) customer, which makes us $1000 in the future
                    • if we follow Trump, we might get some favorable legislation, which makes us $10000000

                    how, do you think, will apple react?

                        I never understood StreetComplete

                        as i understand it, there's tons and thousands of datasets available about public infrastructure, but for some bizarre reason, StreetComplete asks us to fill in that information by hand? How stupid is that? only to make a ton of errors while manually copying in that information.

                          When enough people shout, even the void fills with the echoes of the voices of the oppressed and cannot be completely ignored.

                          is exactly what apple will do with these complaints

                          you could just as well burn your money or drive your car into a tree, as a form of protest. it's a waste, either of time, money, or energy, but nothing is achieved that way.

                              Google and Apple have different versions of maps depending on what your country recognizes.
                              For example, it will shows territories claimed by China as part of China for Chinese IP addresses, but may show them as independent territories for other countries that recognize them as such.

                                Yeah - I was just pointing out to the USians that it’s only changing in their country. The rest of the world will keep the original name.

                                    I can't understand would it even have the part in parentheses in Europe. Think how silly it would look if every location had the regional name for every nearby country added in parentheses after the primary global name. It would be a mess.

                                    Eg:

                                    Germany (Deutschland, Allemagne, Niemcy, Germania, Saksa, <etc>)

                                    Feels to me like special rules Apple has to stroke special fascist egos.

                                    But maybe its not Apple and this is a name set by your local governance. You mind if I ask what country Apple maps you're looking at?

                                      Meant to reply earlier, sorry. I assume that it waits for several inputs to verify. I have completed some streets in my area and there's no changes as of yet. I think its more of a hobby thing. I like going around, getting out of the house and getting some fresh air while having a goal. Things like Pokemon Go just didn't do it for me. I can easily see my tiny town not having much in the way of public infrastructure data, tbh.

                                      I do understand where you're coming from. If its just not your cup of tea, it does seem silly.

                                        As far as I know the edits are applied immediately in the backend, however the rendering of the changes can take some days.

                                          Oh strange. I'll have to check my account. There may be some verification steps I missed, because I know you have to do something to confirm that your edits are trustworthy.
