Can you point out some specific road names that Yahoo have copied from OSM? Following those links to the zoomed out area I am only drawn to roads which are only in Yahoo.<div><br></div><div>If Yahoo are copying OSM then I believe (without having attribution) they are in breach of OSM terms regardless of what they give us. Nobody has the ability to offer OSM without attribution.</div>

<div>But if Yahoo is to withdraw the right to trace their satelite images,</div>
<div>than their usage of OSM map data can be a breach of the CC-BY-SA</div>
<div>copyright on OSM.</div>

<div>Yes, Yahoo maps uses OSM data to correct/extend their caverage, at</div>
<div>least in certain areas:</div>

<div>Some of the minor connecting roads around Guarapari is surveyd by me</div>
<div>and appeared on the yahoo map a few weeks later. Some road names have</div>
<div>been rendered only after I entered them in OSM, and some roads or</div>
<div>parts of roads have changed category after I have surveyd them for</div>
<div>OSM.</div>
