the Google logo is there because they use the Google API to display the map. It is a requirement from the Google API. You can see it here in the source code: <script type="text/javascript" src=" https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=...&libraries=geometry,places&sensor=true&language=ru "></script> I agree that this leads to situations where "normal" map consumers presumably have difficulties to understand that the map is not from Google. Also the attribution on this map should be improved, because it doesn't contain a link to osm or to our license (as far as I see). Cheers, Martin
