That was my assumption. They never took any technical measures to prevent us from doing it, they just sent us a letter. Calling it a cease and desist is a bit generous, as it wasn't crafted very well, or by a lawyer.
I am not worried about arguing over copyright, considering that ultimately, if the user created the map using Google's maps, then Google trumps all. If it was created by uploading a log file, then it's more gray, but, the user provided a file created by hardware they own, and MMR is merely representing it on a map. I can't imagine they can successfully pursue a copyright case.
Thanks for the input!
