The Google Map API needs an account with billing to be able to try it. That mean we need to have an account with a credit card or with Google Play credit.
But once you try it on a website, doesn't it mean anybody can look at the JS source code and use that API key? How do you prevent your account from being charge for usage that wasn't yours?

I think the API key is only valid for requests from a specified origin (= your domain).
