Never Forget How Eagerly Apple and Google Coddled Fascism

> Google (and its defenders) initially tried to pretend that they were just helplessly and clinically adhering to US Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) data. Something journalists later found out was a lie, because Google adopted the name change before the government could get its act together and implement it

This is interesting I must have missed it in the whole saga. GNIS was the HN consensus, now debunked.

Americans don’t like this, isn’t rubbing their face in the stupidity they elected the opposite of coddling fascism?

Noting that they actually do also coddle fascism, but in this case I’m not sure they’re doing Trump any favors.

If they wanted to do him a favor, they’d come up with a reason to wait until after the midterms to update.

Please don’t forget the American people voted (either actively or by default) for this.

Hear, hear
