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

You didn't read my previous comment apparently. They are NOT shutting off all translations. They are shutting the freestanding translation page in favor of embedded translation web elements within pages. The "why" is the freestanding page doesn't make them any money, while translating web page
