## Resource

Lake Ontario nearly became “Lake America” thanks to a presidential order, but MapQuest refused to go along—posting its defiance online and sparking a viral digital protest that brought the old-school GPS app back into the spotlight. Hundreds of thousands downloaded it in response, pushing it to 1 in the U.S. app store, while Google played it safe with location-based naming. Even MapQuest dropped a fun tool letting users rename the lake themselves—proving how one bold stand can ignite a nationwide conversation.
