Hi Michael and Christian,
I don't know if there's any other way than going through imagemagick, if
that's the only way, then sure it would cause extra work on (y)our
servers. if that's too much, let the server manager measure and decide.
my approach was trying to find a solution to the problem raised by Simon
Poole, not to deface any web site relying on OSM. or we would put the
wrongdoing on our side.
but then, that was what just »I would probably do« … maybe after half an
hour spent on trying to do it this way, I would fall back to Christian's
way.
"whatever works"
btw, Christian, you are measuring the effects of your action, and the
timings. you started with 20 "abusers", you got immediate effect on
some, then you added the email address in the tile, and got more
results, how far are you now? and what further steps does your team plan?
ciao,
Mario

well, it does look slightly invasive … I had imagined something like a
transparent text on top of the requested tile. doing it the way you are
doing it, you are removing part of the underlying information.
A transparent overlay requires calling Imagemagick or a similar tool for
each tile and to cache the results. It makes the setup more complicated
and requires more processing power. Should we spend even more volunteer
time and donations on abusers? No.
Best regards
Michael
