I can... before Arnoud already pointed out that factual information doesn't contain any copyright. Only the stylesheet that create a map is the creative work, that might include the software to do so. What he points out is that in a legal case in NL between an ISP and a spam-company that the owner, here the ISP, has a contractual right to limit the usage of the resources. Now the ODbL licence is actually targeting a third person. So not the publisher (OSM), not the user (2nd party) but the visitor of the user. And he claims this can be a very interesting case... because the 2nd party might actually have accepted the ODbL, but his visitor did not, can a visitor therefore be held to the ODbL contract...
