Android pisses all over Apple -- in Google Maps [Updated]

Google hides lots of Easter eggs in its products and services. Usually fun little extras designed to amuse. However, the latest one discovered in Google Maps is of questionable taste.

Tucked away in Pakistan, close to the New Islamabad International Airport, is a cartoon image of Google’s Android urinating on an Apple logo. Nice.

Quite how the imagery arrived there isn’t currently known. We’ve asked Google for a comment, and will update the story when we get it.

To see this little addition to the map, fire up Google Maps in the standard view and head to these coordinates.

Google will probably remove the imagery from the map shortly, so if it’s not there when you go to take a look, enjoy the screenshot above.

Is it a cutting social commentary on how well Android is doing compared to iOS, or just a piece of immature mischief? Either way it’s fun diversion for a Friday. Enjoy.

Update: Google says:

The vast majority of users who edit our maps provide great contributions, such as mapping places that have never been mapped before, or adding new business openings or address changes. We’re sorry for this inappropriate user-created content; we’re working to remove it quickly. We also learn from these issues, and we’re constantly improving how we detect, prevent and handle bad edits.
