A tool that can be quite useful for specific use cases, they just want to eliminate any regulations so they can pump the stocks to high heaven and reap the whirlwind when it comes a crashing.
I know 😭 they changed it late on the day yesterday. I reported the error. In the meantime I’m searching for other map apps that aren’t bending the knee.
Yup, I just checked. Bing Maps still shows Gulf of Mexico. Google Maps shows Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America). While I can be critical of Microsoft, I do think that Bill Gates will not give in to Trump because he probably does not like him whatsoever at all.
My google maps is just showing Gulf of America. I wonder if it's like versions of the app or something that determines what shows. Too bad they can't be honest and just say Gulf of Mexico.
Just checked, it's location based. I wish they'd give Americans the option of which to see. If some people want to dive into ridiculous fantasy, that's their business.
I was looking at the satellite views on Google maps for my city and a bunch of new development did not appear there.
The satellite views were up to date on Bing and MapQuest.
Grumble…sad google is assisting. I have so much stuff on google that a switch will be a challenge. However, I vote that while we boycott on the 2/28 or 3/15, we also take the time to make Bing a thing, switch accounts, and begin the move to spaces that Resist with us.

Sigh
I thought they were holding the line a little.
Honestly surprised MS didn’t bend over before it was even announced.
I still do t know why these guys that didn’t fully capitulate to W back in the war on terror days are such cowards now.

I don't think I can access Apple maps.
I gave them an earful.

I can't access Apple Maps. I have an Android.
