Its not about the data you are uploading - but probably the fact that you participate in an open project at all. Otherwise - why do we have nicknames? We definitly have people who would not like their employee to know they are participating in open geodata. Yes - i know - you'll see the endpoints anyway but nevertheless. Noone should easily be able to read what i do.
