Google Maps Renames "Lake Ontario" to "Lake America" Even Faster Than US Government
Google rolled out the Lake America change on Saturday, while the official US government maps are still waiting.
TL;DR
- Google Maps has renamed Lake Ontario to "Lake America" for US users.
- The change was implemented by Google on Saturday, faster than the official US government update.
- Canadians will continue to see "Lake Ontario," while other international users will see both names.
- This follows a pattern of Google adopting geographical name changes dictated by US executive orders.
- Apple Maps has not yet updated its maps, and MapQuest has stated it will not make the change.
