  • How come this is not required in USA, the “home” of capitalism?

    I dont know why, but the US is definitely the home of pure unadulterated capitalism, no air quotes needed. Why would private entities need to disclose anything to public interest? There is no reason to add competition to the market, most that try get bought up or sued out of business.

    I know nothing about any of this except capitals sole interest is to make any money as easily or as shady as inhumanely possible.




  • Public transport stops only appear in Google Maps when you zoom in quite a lot despite being some of the most important points of interest when using public transport. Public transport navigation is also very lackluster.

    Maybe its a personal experience or a US problem, but when I was in Japan Google Maps was a godsend for navigating the subway and railway system. I learned quickly to trust that system because they had rail cars coming and going constantly. Ignoring the system caused me to get onto the right train, but that train was a full service train saand stopped at each individual station. Had I waited 2 minutes as directed I would have gotten on the limited service train and arrived at my destination many minutes faster.
