You can’t countersue without a lawsuit to counter.

Strictly speaking no lawsuit has been brought yet. It’s a strong indicator that one may be, but most legal threats don’t go past this point.

It’s worth remembering that you don’t have to do all your searching on one platform. I certainly don’t.

You’d need to federate that, and I don’t think AP allows you to change federated user IDs.

That’s your choice as a consumer.

You can pay a one time fee for Maps+.

If it’s not viable for you, that’s a you problem.

Profit isn’t the issue, it’s having to continually show outsized profit growth rates to keep shareholders happy that’s the problem. Look at private companies like Valve for comparison.
