  @oi8achevy @diaper @TeslaKing420 Wrong speed limit data can be fixed easily in Waze by submitting a map report. A local editor can fix it. Those fixes usually flow through to Google eventually. I've contacted the local editor group about getting this road fixed.

  @scumbagdotdll @Molaau6 It's worth using today. Some QoL features were added, like cop call outs aren't possible if the reporting user is stationary; requires 2-3 repeats to validate; etc. Honestly, it seems like cops prefer Waze these days because people slow tf down and it's less tickets that they have to write. Less interaction with the public = less opportunity for incident.

  Why is there no Waze for golf courses. Every weekend someone drives out to a course that has punched greens or patchy fairways and finds out when they get there. That information exists. Other golfers who played there that morning know it. It just goes nowhere. TurfTracker is the app that changes that. Crowdsourced conditions, one tap to report when you arrive, rewards for contributing. Know the condition before you commit to the round. This is the iOS concept I have been working on.

  They simply slow down when police are spotted or WAZE warns them, then they speed right back up.

  @leahfiles Here's your reply from the AI that just don't lie Speculative Intelligence Analysis: Waze as a Compromise Vector Location Pattern Exploitation**: Waze's continuous GPS pings, route history, speed data, and timestamps create a granular digital shadow of a target's movements—revealing regular visits to sensitive locations (e.g., hotels, clinics, private residences, or protest sites). An intelligence actor with access could cross-reference this against public records, social media, or other surveillance to build "kompromat" dossiers on affairs, medical issues, financial dealings, or undisclosed associations, then use timed leaks or implied exposure to coerce compliance, payments, or information. Real-Time and Predictive Targeting**: Live traffic/ETA data allows dynamic interception or influence operations—knowing exactly when someone is isolated in a vehicle or arriving at a vulnerable spot. Combined with app permissions (microphone/camera in some scenarios, or linked device data), it could enable opportunistic collection of audio/visual compromising material or facilitate "honey-trap" logistics by predicting availability and routes for assets. Historical data also predicts future behavior for pre-positioning. Network and Ecosystem Amplification**: Since Waze feeds into Google's broader data lake (and originated as an Israeli-founded company subject to local laws), aggregated user data can be queried at scale for social graph mapping—identifying who travels together, meets whom, and when. In a full compromise scenario, this integrates with OSINT, hacked devices, or partner-nation sharing to pressure targets via family/financial exposure, or even engineer "accidents"/discrediting events by manipulating perceived travel patterns. Privacy controls are weak once data leaves the device, and legal jurisdiction adds layers for state actors. This remains hypothetical and draws from known app telemetry practices. Actual misuse would require lawful (or illicit) access and is constrained by laws in most jurisdictions; strong operational security (VPNs, app isolation, location spoofing, minimal permissions) mitigates much of it.

  @waze It's already updated the last version. So many experienced the same. When will you fix this.

  @Serk_TX @deaflibertarian Fine by me. Waze is slow and irritating. Google never gets me lost. And, as a dude, I'll never pull over and ask somebody. :)

  @PatsKam Both of the mapping software that most people use Apple or Google maps even Waze, which is now Google anyways use the data from the phones so if a bunch of phones are sitting over a GPS location of a highway they’ll put that red as in stop traffic if it’s slow slowly moving from point a to point B they’ll color yellow and if it’s flowing, they’ll color it the green or blue whatever you have set It’s all based upon your phone data location And everyone else’s phone data location on the roadways

  @Brand0n @Tesla_AI Have they programmed it to slow down when cops have been seen on the side of the road? Basically, is Waze built in and is it automated?

  @wholemars I've got two tickets on FSD.. it's annoying.. Tesla should build in radar detector/waze style police awareness and slow down.

  @ChinaEV_Eng_Lif Try coming to Eastern Europe; Tesla cannot fix its maps for 2+ years. Waze really is the gold standard; too bad there is no native app.

  this is a ******** in the face to we useful idiots who spent insane money deploying hotspots, working on HIPs, subDAOs governance. they just keep selling off the vital organs of the ecosystem and are giving nothing to the builders. were like Waze mappers who got nothing on IPO.

  @leahfiles Switch to OSMand. Offline opensourced navigation. No tracking and no internet required. Works in the most remote places where Waze or Maps fail and stop working. More features and options than Waze and Maps combined. Take ownership of your privacy.

  @AVGirl4Life 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. If you assimilate to our Waze, we have no problem, but when you want to put your ideals in place, this is a problem. My country is full of capitalist not monarch.

  @naomirwolf @Uber Occasionally I have opened up the Waze App and had the volume on low so that the driver knows I'm comparing their route with the route from Waze. I stopped using Uber after the driver started pulling away from the curb before I was fully into the backseat-- and the door was still open. He only stopped when I yelled loudly. I use Lyft instead. All good, no problems.

  @SnooCompliments You guys seem to put a lot of faith into John’s Waze app and a correlation of time done by a guy who has been pursuing a 4 year degree for 18+ years…What exactly is the issue here? Trust the data right? Except when it implicates the house defendants….then it’s obviously just wrong.

  If there is a huge traffic jam and WAZE shows me a different route that can save me time is Waze ignoring my issue and telling me to shut up or is it offering a temporary solution to my immediate problem?

  @gotrice2024 20 minutes is brutal—I’ve been stuck nearly that long on a slow freight crawl with no U-turn option. Best move is to use Maps/Waze for detours on known problem crossings and always treat malfunctioning gates as active: better late than risking it. What’s your usual route?

  @LeinadFre @FPSCANADA_SS_ZZ @koshercockney Just a taste of Israeli technology inventions: Computing and Software: Israel invented the first commercial firewall, ICQ (the first instant messenger), and the Intel 8088 processor that powered the first IBM PCs. Medicine: The PillCam is a pill with a tiny camera you swallow to check for gut issues. Other tools include the ReWalk robotic suit that helps people with leg paralysis walk again. Agriculture: Israel is the home of modern drip irrigation (like Netafim). This system sends water drop-by-drop straight to plant roots to save water in dry climates. Cars and Road Safety: Waze uses data from drivers to map the best routes. Mobileye makes computer vision chips for cars to warn drivers about road hazards. What have you done? Antisemitism, although you certainly didn’t invent that. 🙄

  Thanks to the nationwide T-Mobile outage that just happened, I am now forced to deliver my first child on the side of a highway in Rhode Island. Our Waze app disconnected halfway through the ride to the nearest hospital. Please pray for my wife and I on a safe delivery.
