Has anyone figured out WHY Google maps did this double-digit multiplier price increase?
Were they vastly under pricing it before? Did they want to stop providing it so they priced it at a point that would make almost everyone go away?
I'm just curious about their motivation and surprised that this doesn't seem to have been figured out or even discussed.
