Licking the boots of their new slave master 🫡
Google also says Jerusalem is the capital of israel despite international law and virtually every other country designating Tel Aviv as the capital.
Fuck google.
Fuck Google.
I've been working on de-Googling for a while anyway, but this is definitely the last straw that's gonna get me to finish the job.
Like I said when Zuck et al were on the inauguration stage kissing the orange ass: what's the point of fuck you money if you never say fuck you?
They do. They say 'fuck you' every day to the workers they exploit, the hungry and poor they prey upon, and to all of us when they help themselves to our personal data to sell. That's the point, they're bad people to the core. Billionaires have enough money to do literally anything and everything for the rest of their entire lives, and instead focus on controlling the rest of us and getting more of our money. They are parasitic scum...
Getting more fuck you money
They're saying "fuck you" to us, not to them.
So everyone's switching to foss alternatives, right?
OSM?
Spread the word, share with your friends, etc.
I recommend CoMaps on Android, (or Organic Maps, which CoMaps forked from when Organic started enshitifying)
CoMaps is pretty cool, but it needs better public transit support. It’s good for driving, but doesn’t have bus schedules where I live like Google and Apple maps do.
Is it an issue where OpenStreetMaps doesnt have your public transit system's schedule? if I recall, public transit should be something OSM supports. Or is it an issue with CoMaps/OrganicMaps not being able to read that information?
I feel like this is something that can be resolved somewhat easily once the issue is identified.
How's the Ass of Trump looking, Google?
Watching these corporate collaborators fall all over themselves to enact the profoundly stupid and short-sighted whims of a sodden, rotting corpse when they could just…not do that…has been one of the most surreal experiences of my life.
The sad thing is, thanks to their capture of both parties, I have no conceit they’ll actually experience any consequences for it. We have handed power to some of the least-deserving ghouls the Wharton School of Business ever squeezed out.
I can't wait until donald realizes one of the 50 states is called "New Mexico"
Yo shut up! Are you trying to get New Mexico renamed? I do not want to be calling it "New America"
How about Trumptopia?
Fuck you google
Cringe
I wish Trump decides to rename something in Europe and Google complies so another jump in degooglelization takes place there..
Petition to rename Washington into Turdington.
I'm Canadian and I switched to maps.here.com, a European service as it provides good transit info. We need to move away from American hegemony.
HERE Maps will include the change, I 100% guarantee it. They have Gulf of America pushed to prod servers. (switch to US vpn location and you will see it)
source: I may or may not work for them 🫠
For android users recommend CoMaps, or "OSMand", both are open source and privacy focused. Both use openstreetmaps data, CoMaps just have what I think is a cleaner interface. Both have offline maps, turn-by-turn navigation and frankly a lot more customization since it's not corporate owned. No ads, and no businesses who pay being stuffed in your eyes first when maps load.
Both are much improved since trying to ditch maps a few years ago and basic local business info wasn't available, now it looks to be much improved and it's a great time to jump.
Hope this helps someone.
I'm not sure that Google could sink any lower.
Canada should announce that they've changed the names of all the Great Lakes to Canadian names, like Lake Toronto, and Lake Ottawa. Make sure there's a Lake Saskatchewan, because there is no way Trump can read or pronounce it, so that will really piss him off. Maybe he'll painfully stroke out and croak, and we can all read about it the Big Beautiful Obituary.
Good they make themselves even more untrustworthy, loss of value
Surely, the community-run, mapping project Open Street Maps won't rename it like Google did... right?... right?!?!
it would be funny if Canadians started referring to South Canada instead of America
Nah, that'd be an insult to our country. We need not be associated with the dumpster fire south of us.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
