Google has not removed API access. They have stopped a google key from
working.

It works fine, as far as I can tell. But you need to get your own key. The
well known PPA with VAAPI,
https://launchpad.net/~saiarcot895/+archive/ubuntu/chromium-dev, has always
worked like this.
I use Fedora on another machine, and with my own keys, Chromium works
exactly as before.
