  • Apple Maps shows users the Gulf of Mexico when searching for 'Gulf of America'

    The discussion of the politics of the change is being interesting, but I have a rather different comment.

    When I searched just now for "gulf of america" in Apple Maps, on an iPhone 16 Pro running iOS 18.3, it says it can't find anything.  I am located in Massachusetts.  Though some may say New England is not part of the Divided States of America, I beg to differ.

    So the article seems to be inaccurate.  Maybe the change was reverted, or only appears on a Mac; I do not know.  Does it matter that my WiFi Internet access is via FiOS?  Or that my IPv6 is via Hurricane Electric (tunneled from NYC)?  It shouldn't.
