Re: [OSM-legal-talk] YouTube videos
The issue is not that you will not find a jurisdiction in which it is legal, the issue is that you will surely find one where (at least systematic) extraction of information from the videos violates the rights of the copyright (or similar rights) holder, not to mention ToS issues. Now if that is in country x where we don't care if our data can be used we can simply shrug our shoulders, I'm just not sure that that still exists.

Do any general rules apply? An example of a potentially useful video would be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oH99jVtb1egfeature=youtu.be - I see that the Standard YouTube License is applied to this video, the salient part of those terms (to my mind) being 'You shall not copy, reproduce, distribute, transmit, broadcast, display, sell, license, or otherwise exploit any Content for any other purposes without the prior written consent of YouTube or the respective licensors of the Content.ā See the full terms here: https://www.youtube.com/static?template=terms Note that YouTube users can also choose a CC-BY license - which should be compatible with ODbL.

In the past it has been reasonably easy to get that from institutional sources, but it does imply adding the source to our contributors list etc. something that we would likely want to avoid in the 1000s.

Getting a bit off-topic, but it seems quite a few people don't realise this about CC-By (and also some other 'open' licences). I think it would be a really good idea if there could be some sort of official lists of known acceptable licences for third-party data and known unacceptable licences for third-party data either on the wiki or on the OSMF site, that people could be pointed to. Even if the acceptable list is extremely short, explicitly listing incompatible licences would help get across the point that care is needed, and hopefully help people avoid accidentally making use of incompatible sources. (At least I don't think such lists exist at the moment -- the closest I could find is http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines#Make_sure_data_license_is_OK. However, the issue doesn't just affect imports, but also other sources that people may want to use on an ad-hoc or manual basis.)

Re: [OSM-legal-talk] YouTube videos
Thanks for clarifying, I glossed over the implications of the attribution requirement a little too easily. -- Martijn On 8/8/14, 2:48 AM, Simon Poole si...@poole.ch wrote: Am 05.08.2014 20:25, schrieb Martijn van Exel: ...
