@migurski @zverik @woodpeck @openstreetmap Which leads to the *ethos* of the issue at hand: What do we want OSM(F) to be; what should OSM(F) be?

It can be a crowdsourcing tool so that US-based corps can extract value out of it.

Or it can be a GIS playground so that anarchist hackers can play around and invent new things.

I do not think it can be those two things at once.

And I'll choose anarchist hackers over US corps, any day.
