开发者_StackOverflow中文版 Improve this questionIs it legal to download the jsapi and self host it in my server instead of requesting it directly from the google's infrastructure?
I know that this is not recommended but is it legal?
Just for future reference of others that may find this page.
Google explicitly says that you can not download and self-host the loader, it is a violation of their ToS.

That would take away all advantages of linking to Google's version on the CDN.
IANAL, it may not be legal, but it may be punishable by other future maintainers who wonder why you made that choice - just leave it on Google.

Contact an attorney.
