Mexico threatens Google because of the ridiculous change in the name of “Bay of America”

Following the executive order of President Trump, the Gulf of Mexican Gulf of Mexico, very online were to point out that the water body overlaps with the territorial waters of the neighbors of America, Mexico and Cuba and therefore the United States should not be alone be able to dictate his name. Now Mexican President Claudia Shainbaum is Threatening Google with a lawsuit If it does not change the boundaries and restore the Gulf of Mexico to a territory outside the US maritime zone.

As is now, users watching Google Maps from the United States will see “America Bay; Those in Mexico continue to see the Gulf of Mexico; And the rest of the world sees both names shown side by side. Sheinbaum is the case that the UN Convention on the Sea of ​​the sea is expanding only the sovereign territory of the nation to 12 nautical miles from the coastline, so only this area of ​​12 miles should show the “bay of America”, no matter where the users of the users are. President Trump removed the United States from the international governing bodies so that this argument will fall on deaf ears.

Shainbaum has was pretty vowel about the Gulf of Mexican And he used a press conference on Monday to share that Mexico recently threatened Google with legal action if he didn’t change. Google told Mexican officials that the change in the Gulf is “in accordance with our normal operating procedure to think on our platforms geographical names prescribed by various authoritative state sources, including when authoritative sources can differ.” Google also tackled the renaming of Mount Denali to Alaska Mount McKinley, although the residents there are largely opposed to this move. But this mountain, which was on the US Federal Land, was an open season for President Trump.

Google has long had measures to deal with territorial disputes. Kashmir is a region in northwestern India, which has long been contested by India, Pakistan and China, and users in these countries see different limits reflected in Google Maps. Canada may ask Google to name Canada Canada and see how Trump reacts.

Trump’s administration, in turn Associated Press From the gatherings for the continuation of the use of the Gulf of Mexico. AP, for its part, says that as an international wire service, it uses the name most compatible with global standards.

This move of President Trump is something like an ideological lacquo test that reveals who are sycophanes and who should be rooted as unfair. It is also likely that Trump is also having his power in chaotic and messy ways. How does the name on Google Maps really matter so much in isolation? Not quite -this is the broader meaning of the testing who will lean to power, which is more concerned. Technical companies like Google and Meta quickly agree in any way that can get them on the good side of Trump. The least is to make sure that the President of Mexico is ready to go back to such movements of power instead of sitting idle, even if it will not lead to much change.
