    Google Maps has had my street name wrong for 3 years and has refused or ignored EVERY request to change it even from multiple neighbors. Every other maps platform has it right so it’s not much of a hindrance but it’ll blackhole people trying to get to my house when using it by sending them to a completely random address that’s not even on a matching street name

    Maybe we shouldn’t rely on public, foreign companies with important things like this then…

      Isn’t the US putting tariffs on the EU? Why do you assume is Putin and not Trump?

      For the record I do not think it’s either, just a technical issue.

        Why would Trump sabotage Google maps? 🤦

        Like number of fires across Europe, damaged undersea cables, or explosion in Serbian arms factory when they started sending arms to Ukraine.

          I really hate to defend Russia of all places, but we are talking about empires here and there is no good empire. They are both war crime committing shitholes that should have never has such power.

            Because this is his modus operandi for number of years?

              Ukrainians blew up Nord Stream with US support/approval.

              Biden even has that interview talking about it, saying “we have our ways”.

              EU is too cowardly to admit it, and it disrupts the narrative they created. Shameful.

              There is a joke this conversation reminds me of:

              A KGB spy and a CIA agent meet up in a bar for a friendly drink.

              “I have to admit, I’m always so impressed by Soviet propaganda. You really know how to get people worked up,” the CIA agent says.

              “Thank you,” the KGB says. “We do our best but truly, it’s nothing compared to American propaganda. Your people believe everything your state media tells them.”

              The CIA agent drops his drink in shock and disgust. “Thank you friend, but you must be confused… There’s no propaganda in America.”
