Don’t worry, Google is just showing the information they are forced to show you. The rest of the world is different.
forced lol
“Forced” as in, the CEO would earn 200 million less in a year. I mean that a fucking good reason to bend to the orange twat. /s
Don't worry. Relax. It's just one step. One pill. One less than you had before.
Countries should ban US tech. If diaper Donny has control of them and can make them do this, then they shouldn't operate in our countries
Canada should just stop honoring us IP. They could let a Canadian company clone Google Maps.
they're not forced, there has been no official change.
I think you missed the part where President Dump made the official change.
Surprised there are no brackets for this. There well be though
The Maps team is in Switzerland. Gonna take its time. You first need to specify the change, get it approved by 7 engineers, implement the change, test it by 1000 underpaid Kenyans and thenn will be deployed with the next release cycle.
