Installed one of these and it pops up all the time when I hesitate on the command key, despite which I never use, it even though I'm a fan of keyboard shortcuts. I guess I should uninstall it!

The editorialized title isn't correct. The lawsuit is against GitHub for Copilot not against GitHub Copilot, which is not a "legal person". A better shortening if the original title is simple "We’ve filed a lawsuit chal

You're conflating two different topics. The article asserts (correctly) that the Mercator projection, while useful for navigation, distorts the globe at a macro scale when used for educational purposes. A globe solves that problem.
