This text in the openstreetmap wiki of course does not make it law - it states the expected behaviour of navigation software using openstreeetmap data. Osmand does not respect this expected behaviour. This would qualify as 'not very nice'. This expected behaviour *is* stated because data can be used in any country, where the use must comply with local law. It should in fact comply with laws where possession of the data on a navigation device is already prohibited, whether switched on or not. Do you know all the laws on this topic in all countries where osmand can be installed?
