Also on HN:<p><i>Google says it will change Gulf of Mexico to &#x27;Gulf of America&#x27; in Maps</i><p>4 hours ago | 34 comments | <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=42847758">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=42847758</a>

Original title: “How Google Maps Plans to Handle the ‘Gulf of America’”<p>HN’s clickbait algorithm mangled this, but in this case, I think the original title is more accurate.

But will Google follow suit when the Atlantic is renamed Lake Bedminster, and Europe renamed Putainia.?<p>Not to mention Eurasia, Eastasia and Oceania.<p>And Mars? You already know that one.
