Thanks for providing that link. I knew about OSM, but didn't fully grasp that (duh) it's open which means I can help with the data. Time to get busy!

For them to not exist and to stop it they meed to be cleaned over regularly. Some countries had that figured out.

Apple still has it as Gulf of Mexico.

That's a weird flex by South Canada.

If Justin Trudeau gets active on this, you can probably get it to Gulf of Canada (Gulf of Mexico) (Gulf of America).

iirc, it's the policy for countries that google categorizes as "sensitive" (aka sensitive snowflakes). US users see gulf of America, but surrounding countries still see gulf of mexico.

Stop using Google services altogether, delete your accounts. Block ads. That's the only way to cost them some pennies.

This is the way.

Recently began contributing to OpenStreetMap. Information on my place is quite outdated, lots of work to do!
