But it's not called that, and it's not the official name.

Naming shit isn't a presidential power. His declaration has no more weight than if he announced that from now on your legal name was Vicky.

It's silly and stupid, but also genuinely dangerous when groups with as much power as Google has declare that they're willing to let a madman dictate how they describe reality.
