I think that the code for the Intent is legal, its just a URI. And you don't need a Google Maps API key to use it. All the code does is either launches the Google Maps App or the Browser which go to the Google Maps site. As either would launch new apps I would think its okay with the realization that at any point Google can change its mind about the URI format or disable it.
