Gulf of Make a Report to Apple

Please go to Apple Maps and harass them mecilessly
You're shouting into the void. Stop trying to beg the ruling class to not oppress you and get organised. They will not give up power voluntarily.

To be fair, the entire history of humanity is full of exactly that. These are mostly just aimed at and recognized by the US. Same as Russia currently renaming occupied villages. Nobody else recognizes those, it’s just not that special or important at this point, with all of the other shit going on.
Ultimately, the names of places change. All the time. And will continue to change. It’s just what we do as humans. Somebody uses force and swings their dick around and locally others have to either swallow or punch the fucker. Elsewhere people fight similar fights and care very little about the other dickswingers far away.

The world today has nothing to do with the world 200 years ago. GAFAM are controlling the way information is shared and it's very, they are more powerful then anything humanity has ever seen. It's Big Brother from 1984.
But unlike americans, I don't consider that we should just don't care and stop whining. I'll keep fighting fascism any way I can.

Honestly - this is from a playbook used by every autocratic administration: “Take the attention away from the more important things”. Seen it in EU constantly: Hungary, Slovakia, Serbia, etc.
So sure, report it, but be aware this is a charade.yup. at this point the bullshit coming out of trump's mouth is the least concerning thing in this admin. the heavy lifting is done by the heritage foundation and doge

I don't really know how to feel about this.
Was it decreed by an absolute narcissist for no reason other than the kind of blatant arrogance Americans are notorious for? Absolutely.
Was it also completely legal? As far as I can tell. It's not really these companies' place to resist map name changes, it's the citizens' and our representatives'.
Does it have anything at all to do with fascism? No.

Most of the things Traitorapist Trump does is a desperate plea for your attention. Remember that 1 day immigration "crackdown"? He just wanted your unneccessary attention for that one particular day. If finding illegals was that easy they would have already been caught by Biden. He will do another one, but it will be on a random day that Trump is worried you aren't paying him enough attention. There is no master plan on immigration, just a bunch of 1 day stunts. You can also safely ignore everything Trump says about annexing Canada, Greenland, and Gaza.
Ignore all Trump's meaningless nonsense and 1 day stunts. Instead of doing that, pay attention to his 2 big related things which are his (1) Enshitification Push and his (2) Fascism Push. Fascism involves Enshitification, but his Enshitification Push goes beyond Fascism and includes things like trying to normalize corruption, promote incompetence, and hugely degrade the quality of government. Somebody needs to track every single one of the specific details of those things. But here is what we do NOT need to do: don't fall into Trump's narcissism web and think that just because Trump says some stupid thing every day you need to pay attention to him every day. On most days you do not.

You can leave a review for 'gulf of Mexico (gulf of America)' in Google maps too. Let's do a review bomb

is there an easy way to export all my map markers from google to organic? I've saved a lot of locations over the years.
-
Eh, out of all my own traffic I’ve MITM’d it’s mostly been third-party SDKs in apps doing creepy shit.
Down to hate on Gulf of America but when it comes to privacy it’s debatable.

All he can dictate is what official American maps call it. But he can't make everyone else rename it, Apple and Google did not need to rename it they could have ignored him who has no legal power to do anything to them but they are kissing his bronzed arse so of course they did.
Apple and Google did not need to rename it
Who has the authority to dictate what things should be called on a map if not the government? Tech companies are supposed to make these decisions?

What difference does this make? Some lower level employee will see this, roll his eyes, and then continue on with his day.
Beyond this, do you think Apple can actually take any other position than aligning with fascism? That was always going to happen. They literally can't help but align with fascism- this is the culmination of late stage capitalism.
It's like politely asking a dog not to salivate when it sees a steak in front of it.
You're not gonna get anywhere and you're just wasting time.
I think it helps mostly to produce this OP.

Didn't last long...
Yep.
I have tried on my phone and Mac, and I can't submit anything. Even for other locations.

You're shouting into the void. Stop trying to beg the ruling class to not oppress you and get organised. They will not give up power voluntarily.
When enough people shout, even the void fills with the echoes of the voices of the oppressed and cannot be completely ignored.

you push back every step of the way. that's how you deal with it. Apple maps reporting getting shut down for this is a sign that someone at a higher level took notice and it will have feedback to even higher leadership. So yes, this is feedback, even if companies do company things, it's also sending a signal that on the long run their company things might be better off aligning with the users. Is this gonna make any difference on its own? Nope, but a million of things like this may.

I can't be the only one who feels like this is the absolute lowest priority of dumb shit to resist the regime over. It's just filler. Another thing he is doing to flood the zone. But one that really doesn't hurt anything. It's a distraction. Ignore it and focus on the actual damage he is doing.

They actually put enough energy into this distraction to justify some level of response.

Why not both?

Now where the hell did I say "do nothing". Hilarious that liberals' idea of "doing something" is "put a comment into Apple complaints that they can easily not even look at".

So sure, report it, but be aware this is a charade.Didn't get your reference to Hungary etc. Do you mean they are annoying but don't really matter in the overall scheme, or that similar tactics are used there?

The newest review listed is from a month ago and does not include my own 1 star review from the other day, so I'm guessing they're hiding them lol.
