Missing dots/bubbles on standard maps on PowerBI.com

Have there been changes to the standard map visualization on PowerBI.com? For almost a year, we have had several charts showing our data by location and have enjoyed the maps showing our >500 sites. Starting on Thursday June 8, the standard maps will not show more than about 2 dozen dots/bubbles on PowerBI.com reports or dashboards.

One the PowerBI desktop, we still see all >500 dots/bubbles in all of our reports. I have republished some of these so that they are in sync but it seems to be a new display limitation on PowerBI.com.

FYI. Found a fix for my instance of the issue with the map visual. There definitely was a change in how the Power BI Service interprets locations. Went back and put in latitude and longitude for each city and they all now magically appear on the map. That still doesn’t change the fact that something was changed in production, which affected several users of the product, and no one associated with the development team knew why. Microsoft needs to take this product more seriously and stop leaving it to those without the discipline and foresight to plan changes correctly and test thoroughly before an update is released.

 

We have the same issue - our began on Sat, June 10, 2017 - where "a half dozen" of our hundreds of map datapoints in the San Francisco Bay Area are "now showing up in Italy".

 

Power BI "Desktop" STILL shows them "correctly", the problem happens when we "publish" and view on the apps across various devices.  We HAVE "tried to re-publish" but still broken.

 

Also, ALL OTHER - including olders versions - "Power BI reports" using maps in PowerBI.com service are broken as well.

 

The "maps have worked flawlessly" for several months UNTIL this past Sat. 6-1--2017 and STILL today 6-12-2017 remains broken?

 

HELP!!!
