A further issue we haven't talk about: How much detail is ok on residential property, from a privacy viewpoint? Is mapping of "no trespassing signs" going too far? We show structures, and we show driveways. These don't feel invasive given imagery. They are very useful for navigation,

There are many opinions about driveway access tags in OSM, some (conflicting ones) even expressed here, if briefly. Plus, such semantics can be slippery and blur among regions. I believe it correct that access=private tag be removed from highway=service + service=driveway, as "private" seems

Don’t recall if it was on talk-us or tagging, but yes there was a recent discussion on this. If I recall correctly it seemed access=destination was preferred if you were going to tag an access value. But since a significant number of driveways (nearly all?) are not physically through roads
