I was thinking of Amazon, but Iceland is an even better example.
I love “cultural appreciation”.

Although I am well-cultured, I am not subject to cancel-culture. Furthermore, unless given functional, reasonable cause- I do not change my ways unless presented with more-efficient options. The accuracy of my maps and graphs will reign true through the most harrowing storms.
That being said, although such groups have my sympathies- I do not relent without meaningful dialogue about the entire circumstance. From beginning, end, and theoretical fourth-wall.
In this context, if such groups established civil, functional communication with affected organizations- there would be the grounds to be potential change of whatever sort. But simply saying 'dont use my name in your name' means nothing unless originator have a relatively meaningful establishment to uphold. If Apache tribes started their own IT company or were trademarking Apache, then there might be some merit to it- even if it were in sympathetic retrograde. In the meantime, it's just name-squatting and it's just hindering any potential positive affect that could be attributed to it.
