The addition contained valid data which needed amending, not
deleting, in order to improve the quality of the OSM database.<br>
<br>
If an account does not edit, it lies there, dormant. It doesn't
broadcast anything therefore it can't be advertising.<br>
<br>
Companies are allow to add data of the outlets. It improves the OSM
database quality. Here In the UK someone from Hilton regularly
updates their hotels. <br>
