      People have become too entitled with the idea that all information should and must be updated and accurate in the information age.

      I grew up learning how to read the Rand McNally maps. Imagine if one of those maps showed a road/bridge was available only to find out it wasn’t. It’s not the map makers responsibility, nor do they have an obligation for 100% accuracy. They strive for accuracy only because it’s good for their business.

      I saw in the article that they’re suing the road owners. Those are who are responsible, not Google. They took down the barricades because of “vandalism” and didn’t immediately replace them.
