I bet Yelp is probably thinking the same thing.

June 2, 2011 - "Google Places Now Borrowing Yelp Reviews Without Attribution In iPhone App"

http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2611985



In my opinion yelp has no (exclusive) right to the user contributed data contained in its site. Google should not have to provide attribution to "yelp" if they scrape my yelp review, it should provide attribution to me.


Without having read them, it seems like that would depend on the TOS of Yelp.
