They never were "terrible". Though, as a newish service rushed-out because Google no longer allowed their map app to be used on iphones, there were some issues at the start. Google maps had been around for so long people don't recall what it was like at first.
Copying stuff would lead to all sorts of legal issues. So, no to the second thing too.
Given the privacy issues with google, having an alternative is good.
