The Gulf of Mexico will now appear as the Gulf of America for users of Apple (AAPL) Maps, Bing Maps and Google (GOOGL) Maps in the U.S., following an executive order from the Trump administration to rename the body of water. Apple updated its maps app today (Feb. 11) to reflect the change, as first reported by Bloomberg, while Google made the cartographic change yesterday. The Microsoft (MSFT)-owned Bing Maps, meanwhile, confirmed to Observer that it will also show the new name.
