Hello,
Andy from OSM's Data Working Group here.  To be clear - we cannot use Google Maps as a source for OpenStreetMap, because the licence is not compatible.
We should not remove data from OSM (as https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Rps333 did here in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/130134571 on that basis)
Best Regards,
Andy Townsend, on behalf of OSM's Data Working Group
