Yes the API is being shut off completely. Not just that simple translation page most see. The Viewer uses the api so thats why it effects the viewer and tons of other apps. Its not just about monitization although I am sure it is part of it. The API is extremely abused not just by Secondlife and I never said it was just SecondLife. Also my suggestions are not to change Googles mind but to make our code better so whoever we have to use in the future whether its Google or another that we put less burden on them so that the service last longer.
I personally think that Linden licencing the service from google would be a very good solution. They may also be able to work with google to make a better library and caching system.
