welcome to the resistance.

Ok this is awesome. Good for them! I just wish their map search was as good as Google’s. But I’m willing to use them for navigation anyway.

I tried it out but TBH it's not a good UI, at least on a desktop browser. There's a sidebar that takes up 20% of the screen that you can't close or collapse, if you click on a business or something, it appears in the left sidebar but then you can't get rid of it, and there are several pop-up floating tiles that you can't close covering the lower part of the map.

More importantly, I can't find a Layers icon or any way to turn on this Surveillance layer or any other layer. No help button to find out how to use it. I searched for their help page separately and there's nothing on it about layers at all. So maybe this only applies to their phone app, which seems like a weird choice.

I think it's great what they're doing with this surveillance layer (if I could find it) and the not renaming stuff, but for now Open Street Map has a much better interface.

Not available on laptop, apparently. Only the mobile version? That's what search said.

A photo at the top of the article shows MapQuest being used on a laptop. If MapQuest's surveillance layer is not available on a laptop, the photo accompanying the article seems rather misleading.

I'd use it if it wasnt for the massive amount of personal data they collect on users. I'll stick to the stock map that comes with my phone.

Imma leave this here. https://github.com/yetisoldier/FlockFree-Navigation

The MapQuest app contains 3 trackers, according to Exodus.

Why aren't people using openstreetmaps? Why are they so dead set in contributing to closed data?
