    If you’re bored, report missing information and say the lake is wrong and that this will cause conflicts with street signs and directions for actual locations. May as well give them a bunch of support tickets that waste some amount of resources

      I’m sure after making this kind of change, they also have an automated system that redirects all related support tickets directly to the trash.

        Google has been sending support requests directly to the trash for at least 20 years, nothing new here

          They even seem to have some automations for it. The route to my old apartment was shown wrong and delivery drivers almost always popped up on the wrong side of my building behind my backyard. I tried to fix this but my edits were automatically rejected as being malicious. That’s one reason I don’t use Google Maps for navigation anymore.

          Edit: Just checked again. It’s still wrong on Google Maps, still correct on Apple Maps.
