I don't believe him. Musk is in charge, but I hope that once Musk is done with his part in inflicting very serious damage on our nation and Trump throws him under the bus, nobody will forget that Trump is claiming responsibility for it now.
He won't be thrown under the bus. Unlike those that Trump typically uses and tosses away, Elon is extremely rich, well connected, controls a major media platform, and also has direct connections to his allies in Moscow. Additionally, the threat of Elon in government keeps the other tech oligarchs in line.
I don't know what the Verge would prefer, but I'd prefer that People not run a PR fluff piece that is obviously part of her plan to convince people she's not a piece of shit. They're not reporting news or commenting on some new development. There's nothing informative to be reported. It's just a PR piece.
I wonder why they don't give the US the same courtesy they give other nations and at least provide both names, one in parenthesis. Not that it matters much, this name thing is just distracting nonsense. I'll never stop calling it by its correct name anyway. It doesn't matter what Trump wants. He's not my boss.
The solution that would liberate Google and not generate confusion and hostility would be for Estonians to use a European mapping service. Better yet, an Estonian one.
I expect that if you’re in Mexico using Google Maps it will still show “Gulf of Mexico.”
Political boundaries vary in different countries and google maps shows the border differently between India and China depending on where you are using the app.
It’s just a variable name. Different countries call the same thing by different names.
I know. That's why I said that I wished they'd extend the US the same courtesy they extend other nations. Trump can't force them not to, they're choosing not to.
