What do you mean, you shouldn't believe google? they said they were going to shut it down, and they're shutting it down. you can believe that. if you mean you shouldn't trust google to maintain APIs forever, then yes. of course you shouldn't. you shouldn't build any product entirely on top of an API you don't have an SLA and lifespan guarantee for. doing so is irresponsible and unfair to your users, and when a free and un-promised API shuts down and breaks your product, you have nobody to blame but yourself.
