@MarioNawfal Google also had it configured in such a way that if you turned off microphone permissions for the Google app, many of their other apps would crash or not work like Maps and Waze forcing you to turn the permissions back on to get them to work. Based on that it appears that it was intentional and not an "oops" moment.

@TrooperBenKs The whole reason apps like Waze, or for instance Camsam in Germany, are so populair is because of speeding tickets for speeds that maybe over a limit but are not unsafe by default. In the Netherlands they issue 6,5 million speeding tickets a year of which 80% is for 1 to 10 km/h

@RoshanGiri68574 @NCMIndiaa @bihar_police In such cases, fault is shared: Google Maps can have outdated info, but drivers must watch for signs and local rules. Suggest verifying routes with locals or apps like Waze for real-time updates. If fined, insist on official receipts to avoid bribery—report issues to bihar_police if needed. Stay safe!

@InstacartHelp My shopper account was deactivated due to Waze technical error. I have video proof (screen recording) showing the error, but the email support and chat keep sending automated rejections without even looking at my evidence. I need a HUMAN to review my case. Please help! #Instacart

@ConsvAF @atrupar Do you have an issue with google maps and waze telling you about speed traps? Do you cry when folks in the opposite labe flashes their lets, letting you know a cop is up ahead? Do you hate transparency?

@starstrutz @MissJilianne Genuinely did not understand what you meant. Tesla and Waymo both use “Waze-like” data through their proprietary alternatives to feed into their own systems so you can see how that would be confusing. They both have something akin to Waze, but on steroids. Since you clarified, I have a question for you. Notice any differences between Waymo’s and Teslas? Like all of the gigantic cameras and sensors plastered on those jaguars? Maybe you’re purely a function over form type of person, but some people like a healthy balance. Those Waymos are clunky and ugly as hell compared to any Tesla. That’s just one example. Also Waymo isn’t as perfect as you’re pretending it is. Their technology makes serious mistakes and there is no one for police to interact with, no one for other motorist to interact with and no one for customers. You gonna call customer service or sit there and wait for the Indian tech support to get connected? This is not a small issue, it’s created plenty of headaches and problems. They also, by legal obligation, have a massive infrastructure of “remote human fleet managers” that people like you pretend don’t exist. They’re heavily geofenced and operate an extremely small footprint in heavily controlled environments. This is nothing compared to Tesla. Teslas are global. Waymo has been developing their autonomous product since 2009. Tesla started FSD in 2016. Don’t make me spell it out for you further. Drop your Elon hate bias and do some research.

@fisher4maryland @c_cgottlieb @GovWesMoore Someone is making money by creating a state web site that won’t be used to emulate a working web site that exists publicly. You’ll see how much Wes’ cut is when they ban google maps/ waze and start selling ad space on the site.

Isn't it funny how Waze helps us dodge traffic but our leaders keep driving us straight into a disaster? They can reroute your commute but can't figure out how to fix the economy or the border crisis. Maybe they need a navigation app for common sense too. What will it take for them to find the right path?

@19k0011 @ourx_vault @JhnDvln I disagree. The Techstream data synced with the Waze data, the Aperture testimony, his DNA on the broken tail light, the brain surgeon's testimony, and the ARCCA video was evidence he was hit by a car. Still no evidence he went inside the house.

@Hilbe I don’t know, there’s some things I like about CarPlay that Rivian‘s probably never gonna offer me like the ability to use Waze. I for one am tired of CEOs telling me what I want and what’s better for me. seems a bit shortsighted to not at least offer it as an option. It’s just another one of the death by 1000 cuts software issues with Rivian that drives me nuts at this point. Just my 2 cents of course.

@VarunVa93348649 @googlemaps I see the glitch in your video—Google Maps can occasionally give inaccurate directions due to outdated data, GPS issues, or road changes. Report it in the app to help them update. For alternatives, try Mappls (strong in India for local accuracy), Waze for real-time traffic, or Apple Maps. What location was this?

@MrAndyNgo @VenturaReport I'm just convinced they're jobless, bored and trolling. This literally will have no impact outside of making people drive slow, or just using the next block lol. I'm pretty sure this can be reported on the Waze app as well so you could just avoid it lol. . .

@North_Resists @0liviajulianna Waze is Chinese and had previous issues. At this point probably store locally and back up with an online storage cloud service like MS

@Snake7qq @s8r25 @iAl3eez Waze is owned by Google, acquired in June 2013 for $1.3 billion. Past security issues include a 2016 vulnerability enabling user tracking via "ghost cars" (partially addressed with updates), a 2023 lapse allowing real-time monitoring, and a claimed 2025 data breach of 7.6 million records with usernames and GPS locations.

@ihorvorotnov @Cartidise Waze is Google Maps with a different skin and more aggressive traffic avoidance. I find it absolutely horrible. I’d rather sit in slow traffic than take a route through small, speed **** infested roads with lots of junctions to save potentially 30 seconds.

@AttorneyCrump Waze (free app) logs camera locations reported by customers. Might be worth using it to locate patterns. Seems legit to wonder why they are deployed where they are, but if it’s because that’s where the crime is, is that still an equity problem?
