Summary
Google has reclassified the U.S. as a “sensitive country” following Trump’s announcement to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the “Gulf of America” and Mount Denali as Mount McKinley.
The designation, typically reserved for nations with border disputes or strict governments, reflects the growing challenges tech companies face under Trump’s second term.
Google Maps has prioritized updating these name changes, treating them similarly to disputed regions like the Persian Gulf.
The reclassification may impact how Google handles U.S. geographic labels moving forward.
Osmand+ still safe
I would typically roll my eyes at something like this, but in less than two weeks Trump has taken great strides towards destroying the federal civil service, any semblance of a rules-based international order and our relationships abroad, while doing everything but publicly endorsing violence against his political opponents.
He ruined the song!
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin’
There wasn’t as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin’
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of America
Would that mean we, as a country, are now snowflakes? 😅
So much for ending woke culture
I’m going to start calling it the Gulf of Cuba.
