Don't forget Microsoft with Bing maps. At least Google made this just for US users, they made it for everyone.
They aren’t afraid of negative attention, at least it’s some attention and people will know they have maps too
From Thailand and Singapore it shows as “Gulf of America (Gulf of Mexico)”
UK here. It's the reverse for me.
Same for France
Yes, I'm checking now and that's true, old info from me, yesterday from Spain was still Gulf of Mexico, now Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)... Well, tomorrow it will probably be Gulf of America for everyone, they are doing this progressively.
