On top of that, so many places no longer have websites, they have Facebook pages. Wanna see the menu to your favorite restaurant? Fucking Facebook. Want to know the hours of operation of that computer repair place? Fucking Facebook. Want to know if the shop you're going to carries your brand of something? Believe it or not, fucking Facebook. It's so integrated into our culture at this point. No private entity should ever have been allowed to amass that much power.

I have used Google maps and it has worked well so far. But it's just the lesser of the two evils.
