Mapbox at least has it “only” one click away on mobile (I’m not saying this is fine), Apple’s attribution is already 2 clicks plus a lot of scrolling away, and Facebook has missing it completely (as least it seems so on mobile and logged out, maybe if you login you can find it somewhere): https://flic.kr/p/2eUQQGf https://m.facebook.com/pages/European-Court-of-Justice/113220715359398 it is even misleading because a click on the map opens apple maps (on an iphone). I agree we should require attribution on the map or close to it (visible without clicking), for all kind of device sizes, particularly we should put emphasis that osm is credited with the same prominence as other map data providers and logos in general. If there is room for a mapbox logo or tomtom logo, there should also be a reference to osm. It is specifically problematic when / in areas where the data comes mostly from osm and the prominent logo of someone else suggests they appropriate it (implicit misattribution). Ciao, Martin
