Google has always shown the local official name for everything. Borders and names can vary a lot depending on where you are from. I still see lake Ontario since I'm not from the US.

Incredible that anyone wants to work for such Pscho corporations. They must be incredibly ignorant outside their job-function - I hope..
Well good, about time they put warnings on maps. Above is the lake, below is america. You have been warned.

Strong 8th grade vibes. "I asked Becky if she would be my girlfriend and she said no, so I crossed her name off my textbook cover and wrote BITCH over it. That'll show her! Why isn't she noticing what I wrote? Fuckin' Becky is such a bitch, she hasn't even looked at what I wrote over her name!"
They need to keep Daddy Orange happy to keep the administration friendly to their corporate excesses.
Apple Maps hasn’t fallen to the Mad King’s whims yet but I assume they will, as they did with the Gulf of Mexico. I’m hoping Apple’s new CEO has more of a spine than Tim Cuck. I mean Cook. (Aka “Tim Apple”)

Yeah, fuck Google for so many reasons. I'm so sick of their shit. They sensor YouTube comments, too.
We all remember the usa and google doing this to The Gulf of Mexico don't we?
That is why we no longer accept US people referring to themselves as Americans, they don't own the continent(s), even though that is their obvious aim.
