is somewhere between the two. I guess if it is listed in the phone directory's
business section under a particular name, then that name can go in OSM.
this is legally not correct, while it might be assumable for most
cases that it will go well. People have to agree to be listed in phone
directories, but that doesn't imply that they also want to be listed
on other services like OSM, or that their consent for the phone book
is in any way trasferable --- theoretically you would have to ask them
on an individual basis (and to be sure, get them sign a form that
consents the use of their data and keep this form in archive).
I usually put on the map what I can see on the outside of the building.
If there is a plate with name and phone number then this information is
definitely public available without any restrictions. If I only have a
name I'll do a google search. If the address, phone numbers and email
addresses are on their homepage I don't see any reason to not put them
into osm.
