ooli2google is not and never was your friend, it is a dictator tool: Degoogle
This move makes zero sense to me. Why, change it? It’s not it’s official name or international recognized name so wtf
Curry favor with the trump admin
If something as ridiculous currys favor and infkuence with Trump the USA is truly coming to an end.
samus12345It’s not coming to an end as in no longer existing, but it absolutely is as a world power. Maybe it will be for the better in the long run.
davelAnd it will undoubtedly pay off for them. This is the first brazenly tech oligarchy-driven administration.
Remember who was at Trump’s inauguration? Musk, obviously, but also:
- Tim Cook, CEO of Apple
- Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon
- Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta
- Sundar Pichai, CEO of Alphabet
.
Trump, a populist president, is flanked by tech billionaires at his inauguration
Tim Apple isn’t your friend, either. No oligarch is.
These tech billionaires flanked Trump at inauguration
Some of the most exclusive seats at President Donald Trump’s inauguration were reserved for powerful tech CEOs who also are among the world’s richest men. That’s a shift from tradition, especially for a president who has characterized himself as a champion of the working class. Seats so close to the president are usually reserved for the president’s family, past presidents and other honored guests. In one image, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, stand beside Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and his fiancee, Lauren Sánchez, along with Google CEO Sundar Pichai and Elon Musk, the SpaceX and Tesla owner who is a close Trump adviser. Also at the Capitol were Apple CEO Tim Cook and TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew.
I was hoping Apple wouldn’t be there considering Tim is openly gay
Openly gay, but secretly a billionaire.
And clarence thomas is black.
DojanHe donated to Trump right from his pockets. He’s a traitor.
To be clear, they’ve changed names in line with official government policy before, not just for Trump’s admin.
John RichardYeah but that makes too much sense for emotional & reactional people that don’t rely on logic
I get what you’re saying, but the renaming itself is entirely an act of emotion and reaction, with no trace of logic, too. It’s pretty much all we should expect to see from anyone for a while.
They are a private organization with the right to say “lol that’s nice”, and leave it as the gulf of mexico. Executive orders direct government policy.
