Isn't it standard practice to harden permissions on API keys? Like, if I were a bootstrapped startup maybe I'd take shortcuts and let an API key have a * permission but not for anything that could rack up thousands of dollars in bills for the customer. But at googles scale that just seems irresponsible.
