[OSM-talk] Waze and OSM in Chile

[Noam Bardin]

Guys,
we saw your post on Chile (thanks for letting us know).  We investigated it
with our partner in Latin America and discovered a data source who has been
infringing on OSM data.  We have taken immediate action by removing all data
from that source while our partner investigates further.

Please see our apology at
http://www.waze.com/blog/thanks-and-huge-apology-to-the-openstreetmap-community/
.

Noam

[Noam Bardin]

Julio and Ignacio,
thank you for bringing this to our attention.  See our blog post at
http://www.waze.com/blog/thanks-and-huge-apology-to-the-openstreetmap-community/

You guys were right and we took immediate action and deleted all potentially
infringing data (see full story on the post).

Thanks,

Noam
