As a way of managing disputed borders and names in other parts of the world, Google will present the official borders in the country that they are in and show the dispute in other countries. This keeps Google in good graces in all countries they operate in.
The US Federal Government has officially changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, so Google is implementing the same policy here.
Cool. I don’t sympathise at all. They could stand but they choose to bend a knee to tyrants. It’s no inconvenience to me to use alternatives to their products, as I’m sure it’s no inconvenience to them that I do so. It’s a peaceful solution all round.
I don’t really understand why Google would care, tho.
It’s not like they are bound by a public vote or something, and you show them that you still use their Product .__.

You are asking a private company to decide national borders and names.
Boy are you insane
