*Personally*, i.e. if I had to decide, I'd just upload under any license
I want and assume that my use of Google/Bing/whatever was "fair use".
The concept of "fair use" is different in different jurisdictions and
content providers have a history of trying to abolish fair use
altogether (oops, I've quoted a sentence of yours above, do I have to
pay royalties now...). Still, my own working assumption is that if in a
talk about maps I include an example of Google maps then it's fair use
and I'm not bound by their respective license terms.

Bye
Frederik
