On the inevitable ads in Google Maps

A reporter from the Associated Press interviewed me about Google Maps hacks, and during the "any other thoughts you'd like to add?" portion of the interview, I brought up the fact that Google Maps' inevitable addition of advertising is a bit of a bait and switch.

I'm glad the resulting article used that quote. In my opinion, this is an important, looming gotcha with Google Maps that needs to be discussed more often.
