Copyright is less of an issue here, to be honest, than the terms of the
Google Translate API. You can read the Google Translate API Terms of Use
here: http://code.google.com/apis/language/translate/terms.html

The TOU says upon termination, "You shall immediately delete any and all
Google Results". This causes a serious problem for us, as there are many
ways that the TOU could be terminated (by us or Google).

I've CC'd Dimitris Glezos on this, Dimitris, can this Google
Auto-Translate functionality be disabled in the Fedora Transifex instance?
