Apple changed Lake Ontario to Lake America for U.S. users of Apple Maps on September 4, 2026, the first day of John Ternus's tenure as CEO, following an earlier change by Google. Trump celebrated the update on Truth Social as complete, ratified, and binding. The discussion criticizes tech companies for bowing to Trump and points to consumer alternatives such as MapQuest and DuckDuckGo. Trump has since said Sundar Pichai talked him out of renaming the Atlantic Ocean, widening the argument from one lake to how far the renaming push went.
