Well, obviously, it's not Google's fault.

It's the fault of end users not knowing how to navigate several baffling layers of Settings (with informative double-negative names) to turn things off, because everyone wants those things on by default.  Kind of like a do-not-call list, the default is to invite telemarketers to call you.

Remember initially how it was "two weeks to flatten the curve" and that was that?

Would these people be raising the same stink if it had actually been only two weeks?

Anyone familiar with Apple's secrecy should already know they want to keep things in tightly-secured physical offices, and not discussed on Zoom.

Having worked as a subcontractor to a Google contractor, who paid us to manually drive around to verify business addresses in Google Maps, I can see how mistakes like this can be made.  First, the company may be registered to the home address, and that is noted to remove it from the maps and flag it for the actual business location.  The latter part may be missed.  You'd be surprised how manual with humans the process is.  I even met a guy who was retired and was flown around the world to drive a Google Maps car (and eventually an Apple Maps car, having the experience) and he had stories to tell on how he effectively monitors the self-drive, takes photos, and makes notes of those photos on the supplied smartphone.  The Google apps are horrendously over-engineered and complicated!  Curious how the Apple ones work.

I often wonder if the Touchbar on MacBooks was the first foray into a "touchscreen" for laptops.  Sadly discontinued.

I liked it!  Then again, I am one of the few people who loved the hockey-puck mouse, since I realized you had to put your whole palm over it to use it correctly.  Thereby reducing the chances of carpal tunnel syndrome from finger clicking.  Which means I was never a fan of two-button mice either.
