Last month back Steve Coast contacted us to let us know that he had
identified what may have been OpenStreetMap data in Google Maps of Colombia.
We raised this issue with our provider for Colombia, and they agreed to
remove the disputed data from their data set while they continue to discuss

Fredy,
I think they will not tell you who sold them the OSM data. The same thing
happened with Waze when I asked about their provider for the Chilean OSM
Data. They told us that LocationWorld sold them the data (at least the first
time) and that a provider of that company was the one to be blamed

I strongly agree... Most errors are honest mistakes and we should always start

I am pretty sure that
Let's keep license change discussions to legal-talk. I suspect that
whoever is doing this either just found "free" data and chose not to
read the fine print or just didn't care once they had the data. Which
license we are currently using probably wasn't even considered so it
doesn't matter to this

As far as I am concerned anyone is free to use the data I've put into
OSM, as long as they let me have access to a reasonable amount of
stuff in return. Share and share alike.
I'd rather they'd kept the data, and offered to allow some to be
available in exchange.

Does it matter that there is some company out there that is making
lots of money selling map data while violating our (very generous)
licensing terms? Yes... Yes I think it does matter.

I think this is the essence of not being evil :)
Although we feel unable to license OSM data at present
Would this change with a switch ODbL?

Ed - Big thumbs up for the quick response to this. Makes one wonder though -
how much OSM data lives in Google Maps without us / you knowing about it, and
what measures can you take / are in place to prevent and detect this?

Thats cool . Glad to hear from you ed . y
Last week Steve Coast contacted us to let us know that he had identified
what may have been OpenStreetMap data in Google Maps of Colombia. We
investigated the matter and determined that one of our providers had indeed
included OSM data in the data-set they provided to us, once we learned this we
