- embedding-shape 9mo agoCouldn't OpenFreeMap/someone else offer an identical style/theme to Google Maps, or would that be a "copyright" or some other type of infringement in the US?
- dannyfritz07 9mo agoProbably an issue of trademark if people confuse the product with Google Maps.
- embedding-shape 9mo agoDo people understand that embedded Google Maps "widgets" are "the product Google Maps"? I think for most people it's just "that map on a website", even if there is labels and stuff explicitly saying "Google Maps".
- butvacuum 9mo agothey won't care as long as it links to google maps when they click it.
- NooneAtAll3 9mo agospeaking of trademarks... when will google walk the xerox plank already? to google has been a verb for like a decade already
