> 1: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tile_Disk_Usage (In total only > 1.79% of the theoretical number of tiles have ever been viewed.) > 2: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Token_bucket What about changing the tile urls frequently? This could be automated and synchronized with the start page and would stop those apps quite fast (at least until they start making the urls in their app dynamic and synchronize as well).
