Warning: New GrabOSM campaign

My strong suggestion is to leave “import” as a top-level tag and add different values to that key as more and more corporate entities sign on to add details and unfortunately, confusion, to OSM. That way, when we search for future culprits we can search a single key to find all edits from a particular contributor, e.g.,

import=Facebook AI

import=grabremote

import=amazon AI

etc.

Otherwise, someone will have to maintain a list of all the contributors outside of the OSM database. This will be another nightmare for future maintenance efforts.

grabremote=yes

facebook AI=yes

amazon=yes

other_company=yes

Yikes!
