    Still showing “Gulf of Mexico” on Apple Maps for me as of three seconds ago. I’m not in the US.

      Google and Apple have different versions of maps depending on what your country recognizes.
      For example, it will shows territories claimed by China as part of China for Chinese IP addresses, but may show them as independent territories for other countries that recognize them as such.

        Yeah - I was just pointing out to the USians that it’s only changing in their country. The rest of the world will keep the original name.
