I think we should also see our trademarks as an indicator of free
content. So any product that overlays non free content onto the map
should be disallowed from using our trademarks. That should exclude
most ad supported products (as ads are typically non

Is there an informal policy? If I am displaying an OSM based map, am I

license (and copyright was owned by OSMF), and this logo is clearly a
derivative work, then this new logo can't be CC-BY-SA, can it?

public
If you don't restrict use, you don't have a trademark, you just have a
pretty picture. It would be hard to say that the OSMF controls the
quality of the goods and services that the logo marks. Given the
modified versions that have floated around over the years, the OSMF
doesn't seem to care about
