Comment on Mexican President Threatens to Sue Google Over 'Gulf of America' Label on Maps.
cotlovan@lemm.ee 1 week agoInside Mexico they should name it whatever the Mexico calls it. Outside Mexico it should be called however it is called in the respective country.
But again, Google is based in the US, all their decisions are made there.
Yes, and in that case Google is taking a political stance by choosing to label “Gulf of America” outside the US.
If Google was based in Mexico and a similar thing happened, people in the US would be utterly outraged over politicizing geography. And it would be quite obvious they are signaling cooperation to the Mexican government.
