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.
I mean, are you accusing me of changing the name? I’m not sure who you’re yelling at here. I’m as mortified as the next sane person.
Sorry! I was talking to Google, not to you, I have no issue with you at all. I should have phrased it in a more clear fashion. I’m just irritated, that’s all.
No sweat. I get it now. I have been randomly screaming into void myself since he was elected.
