This isn’t just a silly whim or a symbolic fight. It’s about power. It’s about consolidation of power. It’s about a would-be autocrat testing the boundaries of his power, testing whether he can get one of the richest corporations ever to exist to bend to his whims…further, and further, and a little further still….

As @anildash says: what’s the point of having fuck-you money if you never say “fuck you?”

Apple already capitulated on mislabeling the Gulf of Mexico. But that was in 2025, the Year of Complying in Advance. Now? We’ll see.

But calling people by their chosen name and me Sarah is too much to ask for? Lunatics.

It is the "Golf of Mexico" and "Lake Ontario" no matter what this orange in DC hypes up.

In case you wondered, we still have a Golf of Mexico (the second name in parenthesis, so take the first one as priority, the one used worldwide ).

From my corner of the world, the US looks more and more like a Petri dish.
I mean, the name changing applies only to Americans? The rest of the world continues with the old names, at least, that's how it looks from here: Lake Ontario is Lake Ontario.

Would be great to remake this commercial, but only with Trump and with Apple being the villain.

What's interesting is the eo, which obviously trump never read, shouldn't be in effect yet.

It instructs a lot of people to take steps, fairly rapidly (within 30 days), but then people kept to obey what he said, -not- what he signed, which skips...a lot of the important things.

This is leaving aside the legality, of course!
