It’s pathetic isn’t it - any day now this latter day Cnut will be commanding the sea to retreat because his great and might ego demand he control everything. What an absolute dick!’
Un-fucking-believable, then again it's not.
This is the push I needed to 100% leave the Google world. Already canceled every other social I sporadically used, tomorrow it's a new email server.
So glad we have Bluesky 🤞
So stupid. The EO didn't even change the entire Gulf. It only supposedly changed the lighter portion of the water closest to the United States. Trump can't change the name of international waters. Fking idiots, these people are.
My question for everyone is why is this such a huge topic? Personally this seems like a distraction to keep you from asking what’s really happening 🤷🏻♂️
Here’s my read: It’s inconsequential in a vacuum but tangibly symbolic of a wide variety of power structures that are rapidly morphing in highly consequential ways.
As I understand it, Google has a policy of using official names and boundaries as determined by each country’s government. This policy is particularly important in countries that require this for you to be able to publish your map, such as Japan, India, China, and Turkey.

now, i don’t know what to do about gmail. i’d just love to delete gmail… and email in general, but businesses still use email.

Denali stood, so proud, so tall,
Yet Google bent to Trump’s loud call.
The Gulf, the peak, both lost their name,
To fuel a fragile ego’s flame.
Replace their ecosystem with Proton or Tuta.
But I can uninstall Gmail, calendar, photos, translate, earth, etc and then leave them shitty one star reviews.
Phuc em.
Btw this is what I get from Canada
I’d guess OpenStreetMaps based things like Here or OrganicMaps won’t switch.
The USGS maps based apps probably will switch, but those aren’t for car navigation AFAIK
My phone is in English but I write in a few languages and that can influence my searches …
