    1. I just saw the instructions on how to do that and joined in. Not sure if this is only showing up this way in the US or if it is infecting results internationally:
      A quick resistance task: 😉
      1. Google Gulf of Mexico.
      2. “Gulf of America” will be at the head of Google’s answer.
      3. Click on the three little dots to the right of “Gulf of America”.
      4. Select “Send Feedback”
      5. Click on “Gulf Of America” text.
      6. Select “Inaccurate content”.
      7. Select “Incorrect” and type in whatever text you want such as “The correct name of this body of water is “Gulf of Mexico”.
      The more reports to Google the merrier…. 😉

    1. It’s ridiculous that the AP was barred from covering a White House event because they continue to call it the Gulf of Mexico, the name used by the rest of the world as well as many US folks. The Gulf of Mexico is international waters so no national leader has the authority to rename it.
