As some users on the forum posted, that's just more incentive to improve
OSM. I've found it very useful to use OSM maps as a background in Viking
when cleaning up my GPX tracks to see where existing data is and also to see
if the track is reasonably accurate.

[OSM-talk] Viking vs. GMaps

Hi all,

It has come to my attention that Viking (that piece of software some of us use 
to see and manage our GPX tracks) has been banned from using Google Maps as a 
map background:

Just so you know.
