- Google has admitted to removing negative user reviews after changing the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America.
- It is also preventing users from suggesting edits or reporting inaccuracies.
- It appears mislabeling reports and reviews are triggering Google Maps’ “real-time abuse” protocol.
A few days ago, Google officially renamed the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America on Google Maps. As expected, this sudden name change was met with a wave of criticism, which has led to an influx of negative reviews and reports of mislabeling. Google is now removing negative reviews and is preventing users from submitting reports related to the change.
According to Forbes, Google has admitted to removing negative reviews about the recent renaming of the body of water in question. The tech giant has also turned off the ability to suggest edits or report inaccuracies. It appears Google sees these actions as violating its existing Maps policy against fake content.
