Please go to Apple Maps and harass them mecilessly
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.
Do it. Move to Linux.
The stunlock continues
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.
I can’t be the only one who feels like this is the absolute lowest priority of dumb shit to resist the regime over. It’s just filler. Another thing he is doing to flood the zone. But one that really doesn’t hurt anything. It’s a distraction. Ignore it and focus on the actual damage he is doing.
Yah, it feels like someone tossing a ball behind a dog. “Look over there! Go get it!”
I get what you’re saying but, as someone observing from outside, stuff like this is all I can do to resist.
Yeah, I mean it’s just books those nazis are burning, it doesn’t hurt anything, no need to discuss it. /s
US fascists are fucking rewriting the world map and eradicating historical name, I consider it actual damage.
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.
Actual book burning is the scientific data and articles being purged and saved (for now) by the Internet archive
lol, the iOS app won’t let me submit a ‘name is wrong’ report.I’m dumb
It won’t let you send until you actually change the name lol
Ah that was not immediately apparent lol I’m silly
You should abandon Apple for Linux anyways. Apple doesn’t care about you, your privacy, or anything but them making more money, from you. This has been proven time and time again by evidence and whistleblowers.
Shout out to the menial workers at Apple Maps who are going to have a crap day at work tomorrow because of the thing their boss made them do, so they don’t get fired and replaced by someone else who would do it.
That’s why they made Apple intelligence so minded numbingly stupid. Job security. If it were capable Apple management would have replaced everyone.
It says my report is “in review” and I’ll be notified when they review it.
I wonder how that will go, and how fast.
I assume they have mechanisms to just push mass reports into a black hole. Or similar.
Don’t worry. They can send the reports to /dev/null where they will be read by Tim Apple himself when he checks it.
That’s odd; my Apple Maps says “Gulf of Mexico” and searching for “Gulf of America” shows 0 results.
Unlike Google Maps/Earth….
You have to access it from a US IP address to get the new name.

I just sent one in to Google Maps. Clearly it must be a bug. No such place exists
I’m going to start calling it the United States of America of Mexico and sometimes Canada.
I use Naziland
United States of Amerixco
Mexico Jr.
A waste of our time for sure, but I did it as well.
Its only for US users, no worry ;) hehe
