   @thezenlady For dictatorships, what Google and Apple did (and so many others do) is called ‘anticipatory obedience’.

     So I read the Executive Order about renaming Gulf of Mexico: "Secretary of the Interior shall rename as the “Gulf of America” the U.S. Continental Shelf area bounded on the northeast, north & northwest by the States of TX, LA, MS, AL & FL & extending to the seaward boundary with Mexico & Cuba in the area formerly named as the Gulf of Mexico."
     This map shows that this only renames the area of the continental shelf as shown in light blue on this map. Google & Apple could at least get this right!

     Mr. Bill repeated this.
