Any thoughts on how can I punish Google for renaming stuff in Google Maps? My company is already removing Google Analytics and Google Maps from our web site and has halted a planned migration to Google Workspace. And I have personally stopped using Chrome and Google Search which is just a cesspool of AI generated from garbage anymore anyway. But surely there must be more I can do...

Absolutely. That's a good start. Mouseflow or one of its competitors honestly was always more useful to me than Google Analytics. Honestly, as far as I know, a huge share of their income still comes from search ads and YouTube. I think if you just avoid those things, you're already doing more or less as much as you can.

Oh, also, publicize duckduckgo and friends over Google. Google search has become far less useful than it used to be, anyway.

Honestly, web analytics are just stupid unless your business is selling ads. Its just vanity outside of that business case
