    A lot of it was updated with both OSM (imagery via Mapillary) and Google Maps.

    While I love the “don’t make Google stronger” stance, the goal wasn’t to help Google but instead to help the people who needed the imagery. And (at the time, at least) most people planned their routes using Google Maps so it was important to meet them where they were.
