"You add a fake island, and if anyone else has that island on their map then you sue them."

And if anyone lost at sea seeks safe harbor at the island and dies because it's not there, their estate can sue the mapmakers :-)

If you are lost at sea with access to Google Earth, can’t you just text for help?

If anyone dies trying to make landfall on that island, there will be no lawsuit unless the dead guy leaves a diary stating that intention and the whole works is found later. :’)
