And the worst thing for me is that it looks like Google even haven't
even tried to find better solution to this situation, maybe charge
people for using API, for reasonable price of course. A lot of people
and companies would buy access to Translate API.
Well it's a shame. No more developer friendly Google. But on the other
hand this abuse of Translation API has been made by some developers,
so both sides take responsibility for this situation.
