Jesus, that is a gross way to inject advertising into turn-by-turn navigation.

Edit/update from 9to5google so this post does not spread what is apparently inaccurate information: https://9to5google.com/2024/07/08/google-maps-pop-up-quick-detour-ad/

    Are you a mod? Because you’re not on the list in the sidebar. You’re also not on the list of admins on the front page.

        I’m not sure why it wasn’t clear, but I was telling you I have no reason to do what you’re telling me to do. Nor will I.

                    I agree. It is quite sad that you think you can order people around.

                    Not as sad as your bigotry against trans people, but still sad.
