  @NdemoKelvin I agree, the problem is that those clowns are always on the move. It's like they're also using Waze bana. You report them, they move afew kilometers ahead.

  @BuckeyeEmpire Waze gives you at least half a mile to slow to 73 and look for the *******. Use it.

  @WazeNederland @waze Hi, I’ll re-install the app on my Iphone and try if this will solve the problem

  @SawyerMerritt I want to be able to see WhatsApp messages, use Waze, reply to group text messages, build a YouTube music queue. And I don’t want Tesla to waste engineering time on a solved problem. There’s bigger fish to fry.

  @SteveLovesAmmo Problem, she’s fixing them all at the same damn time. She’s flicking us off on her way out! I hate her!! 😡 Thank goodness for the Waze App! 😒

  @TuesdayGazette Waze was a slow speed, less than 20 mph, at times like 5mph

  @The_Suburbanist I would say the obvious problem with your original idea is coordination. How do you coordinate 'paying people' not to drive into an area to limit specific traffic jams? If Waze offered that I suspect some people would try to make money by driving into rush hour traffic.

  @JOKAQARMY1 So you delete waze and use google? They share your dirt with whomever? What issue would cause you to sue waze? It’s free, and you are free to use it or don’t.

  @TeslaKing420 A simple fix if Tesla would just bite the bullet and license Waze.

  @DillonLoomis @butala_aryan Can they just partner with Waze and fix everything overnight? That would be good.

  @htsfhickey Fred - real life example…google maps is actually now really bad at optimizing routes. Really bad…switched to waze which is also owned by google as you know but still seems to be working fine

  @canttreadonmi @gilarutrina @TruthFairy131 You are so correct. For a moment, I felt bad for the victim. But now I see the error of my Waze and I’ll go whip myself and apologize for my absence of pigmentation. Yes.

  @TheHauskarl I agree 100%. Early 2025 this got very real for me. It emerged that the UK government had secretly served Apple with a Technical Capability Notice under the Investigatory Powers Act, demanding access to end to end encrypted iCloud data. Apple's response? They didn't weaken the system for everyone. Instead they pulled Advanced Data Protection, their best iCloud encryption option, for UK users. What really stuck with me wasn't just the demand. It was the secrecy. These notices come with a legal gag order. Companies aren't allowed to tell anyone they've received one. The only reason any of us know is that the story leaked to the press. Apple itself was never allowed to confirm it. Only Apple was named in the initial reports, with zero confirmation either way about Google or others. By design that silence tells you nothing. You're simply not meant to know this is happening. (see below for link to articles). That's when the alarm bells really rang for me. I've since built my own private setup. A Raspberry Pi handles my encrypted offsite backups. My phone runs GrapheneOS. My ThinkPad runs Debian. This fully replaced Google Drive and iCloud. The same principle applies to software. LibreOffice does everything I used to need Microsoft 365 for, free, private, and with nothing phoning home. For most paid tools solid open source alternatives exist if you look. For cheap offsite backups: Hetzner Storage Boxes, 1 TB for around 3.20 euros per month plus VAT, 5 TB for around 11.40 euros per month. Excellent value. Add Infomaniak (Swiss) as a second target. It sits outside the EU and UK entirely. For phone backups I use Syncthing on GrapheneOS. It syncs documents and photos directly to my Pi over my own private network, no third party accounts involved. The files stay on hardware I control. On the phone I also switched to Organic Maps (ditching Google Maps/Waze). You lose live traffic but I would rather keep my location data to myself. My documents and photos live on my own devices and back up to storage I fully control. Nothing important sits on services I can't inspect. The bigger issue is the devices themselves. Anything that phones home is a hard no for me. Firesticks, voice speakers, smart home gadgets and so on. They are designed to send data back constantly, often without clear visibility. Fitbit stands out because it is owned by Google. Every step, heartbeat and sleep record goes straight to them. Fun fact: Fitbit data has already been used as evidence in court cases. The same privacy logic applies to GrapheneOS on my phone. If a device can't be trusted to stay quiet it gets replaced. With digital ID and age verification rolling out fast, now is a good time to audit what you're storing where, what devices you're bringing into your home, and what data you're feeding into cloud based AI tools. My rule of thumb: Whenever something digital feels too convenient, ask yourself: what is this really going to cost me?

  This is the exact thing I've been saying. These ******* clowns don't speak English, have no idea where they are going and will cross five lanes of traffic last minute to hit an exit because their Waze is slow. I've seen mother ******* backing up on DVP exits. @OPP_HSD

  Waze was already based in Israel. Please stop the fake outrage every time yall discover a new piece of information. You move over to google or apple and you still gone have the same problem.

  @Julius_S_Malema @NgizweMchunnu Working for you is real colonisation. Imagine wasting all the time for your lawyer just for and apology? Chief use your resources very waze. How does and apologise benefit the ground flow of Eff? Yeah @FloydShivambu really was running the retail store for you.

  @vad3rt3sla Like Waze… It would also be nice if there is traffic to know the reason: car crash, construction, etc…
