With the release of iOS6 yesterday, Apple fanboys (and girls) took to the internetz and created a comical new meme. In the latest iteration of the iPhone operating system, Apple chose to file for divorce from Google Maps in favor of its own Sim City-esque mapping client. The latest techno-move is presenting mobile navigators with some unintended apocolyptic 3D views. For instance, melted cityscapes and iconic skyscrapers altogether missing from the New York skyline. It’s not yet Halloween, but below are some shots from the carnage.
