How could it ever be appropriate to throw back information on adoption when someone is searching for abortion clinics?   If I search for Catholic Churches should I be presented with information on the nearest Satanic groups?  If I search for burger joints should I be presented with a list of vegetarian restaurants?  Complete nonsense.   

Also, your idea that it might have been "bad data" flies in the face of the reality of how long this change took. America is so backward about abortion and planned parenthood that there are hundreds and hundreds of times less clinics in a given area in the USA than there are in other more civilised countries.  It wouldn't take years to correct that data.   One person could easily in the space of a couple of days go through a list of all the abortion providers in the USA and correct the map data.  Easily. 

You are living in a dream world my friend.  Adjusting reality to fit your theories and inclinations.  

"More civilized countries"

Um, what? You do realize the entire world has become essentially Americanized, right? Europe is degenerate, not "more civilized".

Apple could own the space if they'd just release a cross platform version.  And it would help entice switchers.  I don't particularly care for WhatsApp, but it's the easiest solution for group messaging (greater than 10) when you have a group of 15 iPhones, 8 Androids, and 1 Windows phone.  C'mon Apple...it would be easy.

what's the value for Apple in giving android users iMessage? iMessage and other offerings are fringe benefits for Apple hardware owners. why would android users buy the cow if they have the milk for free?

America is so damned screwed up when it comes to Human Rights' issues. You all know everything dies, yet millions of you; ...defend your "right" to bear arms, ...support Capital Punishment ...go outdoors and kill or maim wildlife on a whim... help cause untold misery in third-world countries where our planets poorest get to live short, wretched lives clawing minerals from their soil in the destructive process of providing you with products you don't really need. So, it's bloody amusing when those of you get so yippity-yuppety about a woman or a man's choice to terminate a pregnancy; grounds for which may be myriad and often in the interests of the zygote. 75% of American's cling to a totally unprovable belief that some god, thought up by Pagan Semites just a few moments ago, equivocally divines how and when all life both begins and ends. Yet, of the incontrovertible fact this same god terminates countless more zygotes than his creations could ever do, you don't question his morality.

Samsung makes better sensors than Sony. In fact, the Galaxy line of cameras have been taking better photos than the iPhone for some time. I would never buy an Android based phone, but Samsung does make some very nice hardware. And the Galaxy line of phones are superior to Sony's Xperia. 

Sony cameras and phones are actually pretty mediocre. Despite the fact that Apple uses them. Apple's iPhone sales have not declined yet as the last quarter was their best ever. Hence Sony's camera and Xperia sales are probably way down. And that's not terribly surprising.
