Many people already argued that copying from aerial imagery is not
governed by copyright law.  Case law proved it:

However, Google terms of use explicitly do not allow this:

That said, I echo Eugene's statement.  Do not test this slippery and
complicated legal argument in OSM.

We maybe impatient with the progress of OSM in many areas in the
country.  But in due time, we can get it done the OSM way.
