Mexican President Threatens to Sue Google Over 'Gulf of America' Label on Maps.

Just call it the Gulf of Fuck The Environment, We're Getting Rich!

I read it. How does that mean he didn't literally say he would be a dictator if elected? That was one of the examples he gave of how he would be a dictator.
He said "for one day, in order to secure the border with Mexico". Let's completely ignore that and run with the headline that supports your view, right?
-
Then why add “Gulf of America” in countries that do not recognize the name?
In case you have forgotten, Google is an American company, every one of their decisions is taken in California. Maybe calling everything you don't agree "fascist" isn't a smart idea, since it shows that you have no idea what the meaning of that word is.

I did the exact opposite of completely ignoring it. I literally said, "that was one of the examples he gave of how he would be a dictator."
Weird to accuse me of ignoring something I addressed directly. I'm not sure what you hoped to achieve.

That is not what I asked.
OK, let’s reverse it, and say Mexico renamed the Gulf to something else. What do you think Google should do, inside Mexico and out?

Inside Mexico they should name it whatever the Mexico calls it. Outside Mexico it should be called however it is called in the respective country.
But again, Google is based in the US, all their decisions are made there.

Dude, you are taking words out of context, you aren't addressing anything. You read the word "dictator", saw red in front of your eyes and ran with it.

Don't even bother with a pointless lawsuit. Simply stop using Google.

Sorry, I'm not ready to move past you accusing me of ignoring something I addressed directly. Why did you do that?

Yes, and in that case Google is taking a political stance by choosing to label “Gulf of America” outside the US.
If Google was based in Mexico and a similar thing happened, people in the US would be utterly outraged over politicizing geography. And it would be quite obvious they are signaling cooperation to the Mexican government.

Wasn't it gulf of America at one point anyway? So it got switched back.

I legitimately don't understand why the U.S. isn't the only locality where it shows up as "Gulf of America".
Set the en-US string to "Gulf of America". Leave literally every other region's text string untouched from what it was 6 months ago.
When the next Democrat U.S. President gets sworn in and immediately Executive Orders it back to "Gulf of Mexico", change the en-US string back to that.
This is all so stupid and melodramatic.

That’s the point!

I don’t. DuckDuckGo and an alternative email provider are wonderful.

Nope. Although one explorer did call it Gulf of Florida at one point.

I can understand why. To each their own.

Trump said on the “day one” he referred to, he would use his presidential powers to close the southern border with Mexico
That's from article you linked. Maybe read the content of the articles you link to, not just the headlines.
It’s day 25. So Trump broke his campaign pledge to be dictator “only” on day one.

That link isn't resolving.
Maybe it has a weevil in its underpants.

Do it honey. Make em pay for suckin orange ass
Yeah!! Spend your money on a completely pointless lawsuit!! Fill some lawyers pockets instead of helping your citizens!!
Remember: the most important thing to professional politicians is optics! It's what fools the morons into thinking you are doing something good!

What do you mean by not resolving? It isn't working for you?
