Yes, I do no trust FB declarations at all, it FB still refuses to attribute OSM properly and I hope that FB employees will not be elected into OSMF board. But in this case in FB self-interest is to keep this data available to OSM and I expect that they will continue this. Jun 19, 2020, 18:05

It's in Facebooks interest to have OSM be the best it possibly can. Facebook doesn't want to be dependant on Google for map data, so they are going to try and commoditise map data to improve competition. Google just released Google Maps SDK for Unity, an API for app developers to make Pokemon Go
