Here in the US, we're dealing with a President who capriciously tears down historic buildings, paves over rose gardens, insults allies, and regularly renames map landmarks, locations, and even gulfs and lakes like he's picking out names for his often poorly used golf clubs. It would be entertaining if it weren't all so incomprehensible. The only thing that's tougher to swallow is when seemingly rational tech giants fall in line and rename these locations right along with him.
After US President Donald Trump renamed one of the five Great Lakes, Lake Ontario, to "Lake America" over an ongoing trade war (that he started) with Canada, Google rather quickly renamed the 193-mile-wide lake on Google Maps. For a time, Apple Maps appeared to be holding out, only to swap out the name on Tuesday.
