Google has not removed API access. They have stopped a google key from working.
It works fine, as far as I can tell. But you need to get your own key. The well known PPA with VAAPI, https://launchpad.net/~saiarcot895/+archive/ubuntu/chromium-dev, has always worked like this. I use Fedora on another machine, and with my own keys, Chromium works exactly as before.
