    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.

    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.

      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 and eradicating historical name, I consider it actual damage.

      I get what you’re saying but, as someone observing from outside, stuff like this is all I can do to resist.

    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.

    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….

    I don’t really know how to feel about this.

    Was it decreed by an absolute narcissist for no reason other than the kind of blatant arrogance Americans are notorious for? Absolutely.

    Was it also completely legal? As far as I can tell. It’s not really these companies’ place to resist map name changes, it’s the citizens’ and our representatives’.

    Does it have anything at all to do with fascism? No.

      fascism is when i don’t like something, right?

      isn’t it best when we water down terms to meaninglessness? /s
