I don't think it would be an offense, when you join OSM you're not agreeing to provide true information, only that you produced it.

Probably in most jurisdictions the intent will come into the equation. If I make a random change in OSM data just for laughs, then it will be hard to make a case against me, but if I change a road to lead over a cliff, knowing full well that my enemy #1 is going to download the data into his satnav that night and then blindly trust it then I might be facing trouble, no matter whether OSM had a big red this is all just for laughs message when you sign on or not.
