Every American should report the inaccurate name to Google repeatedly until they change it back. How many reports would it take to at least inconvenience Google?
It’d just result in a filter on all reports on that location. Only thing being inconvenienced is one programmer.

Ahh, how many zeros can you count?
Also Google on 2008: “By saying “common”, we mean to include names which are in widespread daily use, rather than giving immediate recognition to any arbitrary governmental re-naming. In other words, if a ruler announced that henceforth the Pacific Ocean would be named after her mother, we would not add that placemark unless and until the name came into common usage.”
Then they changed Turkey.
You mean Turkiyiyeyeye?
Okay. But…
Why?
Not as in why do it, I know exactly why and posted about it earlier. It’s TERRIFYING. It’s REALLY bad.
But as in “why comply?” Fuck is Trump gonna do or not do that Google’s so fuckin’ interested in. Man fuck this guy and fuck google. I already don’t use them as much as I can, but FUCK THEM.
Trump could order a penis be drawn over the Atlantic ocean and Google Maps would comply. That’s what happens in fascist countries where the powers that be and corporations are in cahoots.
See point 9. of the 14 characteristics of fascism.
Well there is always Open Streetmap
I want to get off Mr. Bones wild ride.
Unfortunately History has only one exit, and it forfeits all future participation.
This is such a stupid timeline
they should just rename everything based on username. gulf of hubertmanne mount hubertmanne. I think I would like that. Ill be flying out of LA from hubertmanne and arriveing in new york at hubertmanne.
So, they discovered the concept of local names.
