I agree Leroy, it’s a start and allows everyone in the community to see what steps have been taken in trying to get a resolution. Maybe the Facebook issue (and other conglomerates!) needs its own page to document clearly what has been done and what resolution has been the outcome of the various steps. It helps to build knowledge for future cases.
I had a win with a site after a second contact. That was after doing extra research and finding the actual people who maintained the site. The issue was then quickly fixed. I am also happy to keep on the issue with companies in my own country to ensure they understand the obligations. If they can see that other companies have the ability to do the right thing then it shows its not a major hassle. Its also useful to know how these people create their sites. It may well be that plugins or other web software can be modified to ensure that the attribution is always applied (especially in the case of smaller organisations). Maybe even OSM endorsed products could help in this respect?

I don't have a good idea of what should be done but I slightly disagree with @Numo on this point : @Phil Wyatt don't get me wrong, but adding something there is useless. i added Facebook there over one year ago. They don't have shame, no point to add companies there, when there's sites and companies that been there for years without real consequence. It's just a wiki page that most won't ever acknowledge. Maybe the wiki is not the better solution but having a way to illustrate the "attribution problem" and keep track of it feel important to me. I don't think this will solve all the problems but at one point we will need a way to accumulate knowledge and produce some kind of visualization/quantification either to negotiate (or try) or broadcast it. The wiki is a good beginning how can we improve it ?

I will try to do that documentation over the holidays. @Phil Wyatt don't get me wrong, but adding something there is useless. i added Facebook there over one year ago. They don't have shame, no point to add companies there, when there's sites and companies that been there for years without real consequence. It's just a wiki page that most won't ever acknowledge. As an xmas bonus, here's another Facebook company (via Mapbox), Snapchat that is using OSM without attribution requirements (funnily there's plenty of space for a reasonable and visible calculated mapbox logo and text). They probably don't know, nor that they have been asked to comply over a year ago, nor have agreed with the license in every aspect of it when stated using OSM data, nor read Mapbox TOS, or Mapbox been informed on these repeated offenders, nor read the multiples reports in mailing lists, nor that they had a employee that ran for OSMF board. https://map.snapchat.com/ Let's continue to be hypocrites and pretend nothing is going on for over a year with these two companies that are corporate members of OSMF and should be the first ones to give examples. Enough with excuses. Happy holidays.

It is understandable that repeated problems are frustrating. We as OSM contributors see so many of them, and by the hundredth case we perceive them as repeat offenders. I try to remind myself that absolute majority do not do this on purpose, and that my perception should not connect a new case to all the previous ones. It is harder than it might sound :) Without diving into specifics of each case, it still seems important to have clear documentation on major cases. Have you had a chance to put together a dedicated wiki page about Facebook? It has been repeated in email threads many times, but if a student came around and wanted to put together a research about attribution, copyright and whatnot - would they have an easy time getting a complete picture of Facebook attitude towards OSM attribution? It would be crucial for that page to be neutral and avoid accusations, even when Occam's razor seems huge and shiny - pure facts would fit there best.

Strava sends emails of OSM basemap to their users without attribution. I been testing Strava app today and had a couple of laughts TB. tYhere's even more interesting stuff we should take notice when doing the attribution guidance. they use Google maps on their android app, the routes they display clearly isn't from their users (it's not GPS traces as it is impossible to have no overlaping traces on mountain regions). I'm sure these routes are from OSM and I'm gathering evidence from my contributions that this is OSM data. I will get back to it when I get home and record a video with clear evidence that it is impossible to be their users GPS trace or Google Maps (as they do not have data in that regions). That could only come from OSM and I'm sure as I added that data and weekly monitor the editing and their suggested routes sometimes overlap the same route as it displayed different versions of OSM data during the years. -- Rihards _______________________________________________ osmf-talk mailing list osmf-t...@openstreetmap.org <mailto:osmf-t...@openstreetmap.org> https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/osmf-talk -- Olivier Leroy Docteur Géographie et Environnement Post-doctorant EVS ANR Rêveries <http://reveries-project.fr/> 06.18.37.18.08
