In posts on X on Monday, Google said it will follow the government's lead in changing the names on its Maps app.

    Google, or rather Alphabet, is an American company. Trump is the president of America, the most powerful country militarily and economically. Alphabet is also subject to American laws and is currently under an anti-trust lawsuit with America. What makes you think Google can stand up against the US?

      They’re not required to change it. All the law does is officially change the name for official government purposes it doesn’t require everyone in the US to start calling it that.

        I never said they were required to change it. I just wanted to put into perspective the power that Google has vs the power the US has. Also change the name of the Gulf of Mexico is not law. It did not go through Congress.
