You are starting to derive the licensing terms from intentions, and not the actual process or usage. Which basically says, if the community accepts this way of judging: however you use our data, if we don't like what you do with it, you would have to stop. And that is definitely not a FOSS

Thanks for raising the issue. We at maps.me tried to follow the license: basically we are combining the OSM data without certain nodes (see the list of ids at http://direct.mapswithme.com/direct/latest/skipped_nodes.lst ) and a proprietary data set for hotels. Since we do not use any OSM

According to [1] if someone combines non-horizontal layers together, the results must be shared under the ODBL. From my investigation it appears that the MAPS.ME app [2] is combining OSM hotels with non-OSM hotels. https://tianjara.net/hosted/maps.me-1.png is a screenshot from the app. Hotel A
