Where did this gulf of America thing come from anyway. It just seems so left field. Was it a hot topic among the MAGA or something?
It just seems like he woke up one day and had an idea 💡
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.

They're on this stupid renaming kick. Renaming all the "woke" names back to the "original" white slavers and racists these places originally honored. There are few enough brain cells and energy in government and this is what Trump is making them waste it on. Gulf of THE AmericaS would make sense but obviously the intent is to claim it as the US's.
Like a little bitches they are...
Why not get right down to it and call it exactly what they want it for?
Gulf of Oil...
I don't recommend Google Maps anymore. It's a really shitty map. I've been reporting bugs for ages and they never fix them. Also the GPS is really terrible, it sets the road full of constant turns and forces you to drive on small narrow internal roads instead of normal open roads. The localisation option sucks too, it keeps showing me that I'm somewhere else and my position is always a few metres off and it's so delayed that you don't know if you've made a good turn or not unless you wait like half a minute. Also the glitches in the map, missing locations, blurry photos, random photos swapped around and extreme inconsistencies. It's crazy that this shit is still being used. I bought a dedicated GPS for a car and in my phone and PC, I use OpenStreetMaps or its forks.
If you are close enough to it for the name to have any relevant reference, you're just guna say Gulf anyway.
Why not change it back to “Freedom Fries” while you’re doing dumb shit? Gives us something to laugh about for the next 20 years at least.
Any chance there's a place we could all start submitting bug reports about the incorrectly named body of water? Once the change goes into effect we should post that everywhere and see if we can swamp Google.
They’ll regex those bug reports so fast it won’t even matter.
Could someone explain to me why are people irritated by this? I'm a foreigner.
Fuck off google🖕🏼x2
I am so glad that I switched our app over to OSM last year.
