His comments came in response to a U.N. report released last month that alleged technology firms including Google and its parent company Alphabet had profited from “the genocide carried out by Israel” in Gaza by providing cloud and AI technologies to the Israeli government and military.

“With all due respect, throwing around the term genocide in relation to Gaza is deeply offensive to many Jewish people who have suffered actual genocides. I would also be careful citing transparently antisemitic organizations like the UN in relation to these issues,” Brin wrote in a forum for staff at Google DeepMind, the company’s artificial intelligence division, where workers were debating the report, according to the screenshots.

I tried OrganicMaps, but it was noticeably less usable than Google Maps.

When you actually need maps on mobile, UX issues and jank becomes extremely annoying.

CoMaps works better than OrganicMaps for me. And there is an app called Geo Share than can transform links from GMaps to CoMaps.
