#7Google has been far too eager to please Trump and implement his silly ideas. I don't even think it's the president's job to name geographical features, and certainly not for the rest of the world.
Someone recently pointed out that this sort of thing is a test to divide the people into two groups: those who comply, and can be counted on to comply with whatever comes next, and those who protest, and are clearly a problem that might need to be dealt with. The people who are silent can generally be counted on to remain silent.
But even if you don't care about such political implications, it's ridiculous that Google is also forcing this onto the rest of the world.
But I was already planning to rely more on OSM anyway. I suggest that everybody who objects to this grandstanding do the same.

OpenStreetMaps has excellent maps, and there are many apps that use it. Unfortunately their search is usually not that good.
I use Organic Maps, and also have OsmAnd. Great maps, poor search. I'd love to know if there's an app with better search.

#10Are there other instances of differing names by country? I don't mean language differences. I found it strange that for the rest of the world, they'll see both.
