Mexico sues Google over 'Gulf of America' name change
- theandrewbailey 2y agoIsn't it common for different countries to refer to the same geographic feature with different names? Why would Mexico care what Google displays to American users?
- watwut 2y agoThey care for the same reason why USA made it suddenly national emergency to rename it. USA wants to gain something and Mexico does not want to loose that something.
- beardyw 2y agoMexicans presumably call it Golfo de México. Sadly I don't think they have much of a leg to stand on. The English Channel is called La Manche by the French, and there are many, many more examples.
