    There is also no need to be concerned about openstreetmap (other than them getting ddosed by AI companies). Google and apple maps already exists, yet OSM thrives despite that. There is no competition that could replace what OSM does, its the champion of maps for anyone that isnt just a carbrain.

      There’s a concern if the infrastructure hosting OSM’s services are degraded because of bot traffic
