Gulf of Make a Report to Apple
-
Ah that was not immediately apparent lol I’m silly
-
Wrote App Store review, then deleted maps. Installed Organic Maps to replace.
-
Based. Organic maps is a great navigation app. I also like magic earth
-
Also, reporting that Trump Tower (either) should be renamed Mexico Tower feels pretty good.
-
Yah, it feels like someone tossing a ball behind a dog. "Look over there! Go get it!"
-
The stunlock continues
-
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. -
That's why they made Apple intelligence so minded numbingly stupid. Job security. If it were capable Apple management would have replaced everyone.
-
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.

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.

Scared me for a sec, though I had an IP leak as I VPN to Switzerland but remembered I explicitly allowed Maps to be routed through a US VPN.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Just wait, they said they would enable it globally soon enough.
-
From a UK or German IP address, Google maps has it as Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)
-
Not for long. I'm literally on the other side of world.

Switch to MacOS without Apple when it is finally released. -
The full name of Mexico is "Mexican United States". Not joking.
-
hmm I wondered this too. I have a ton of starred places as well as some custom lists. I wasn't able to find anything to do it, but would also be interested in this.

It is the main thing Trump is good at:
Creating some drama/infuriation to keep news noisy in order to hide his fascist dictator playbook moves
