The notion that text in a tag wiki article is somehow an authoritative
standard with the force of law is.... very surprising.
... 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. ...
In which case, your best course of action is to file an issue report on
the OsmAnd github page. This group is simply users helping users. We
are not the developers, nor do we oversee or control the development
process. Sometimes a developer peeks in to the group, but this group
is not the primary communications channel to reach the developers.
The issues page can be found here:
