msig0000 Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 Google has temporarily suspended Google Map Maker, a service to allow the community to make edits to Google Maps similar to how Wikipedia edits work. The reason the service was suspended was because of the recent public edits made to show how easy it is to make fraudulent edits to businesses. Google has pulled the tool that allowed users to make amendments to its Maps service, in the wake of a huge prank that saw a user draw the Android logo urinating onto the Apple one.

Lurker Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Ah I saw this news couple weeks ago, they should implement a tight review or manual approval for editing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
