Submit your edits to OpenStreetMap instead. Fuck doing unpaid labor for Google; they can fucking pay somebody for it.
I have thousands of edits on OSM for over a decade, but people getting lost is less cool than spending 3 minutes trying to help people
Normally I'd agree with you but a lot of people use Google and driving for a few hours in the wrong direction in Tasmania can kill you. Fixing something like this might well be a humanitarian action.
this sign is the "humanitarian action." fuck Google
This is the way.
