[Osmf-talk] [OSM-talk] Attribution guideline status update

> indeed whoever publicly uses OpenStreetMap data has to attribute, it doesn’t matter whether they get the data directly from the OpenStreetMap-Foundation or from a third party. 

I don't see how that can be correct. If company XYZ buys images from company ABC, that ABC created from OSM data, there's no relationship between XYZ and OSM.   Perhaps you're suggesting that the
terms of use between OSM and ABC requires ABC to require XYZ to attribute, in which case ABC is indeed
required to attribute, but in all cases it's ABC (the entity _actually using_ data from OSM) that has the onus. No?

In any case, back to the original complaint about Strava, I still have not seen an example of OSM-derived
 data currently being presented on Strava without OSM attribution, so again, I'm confused as to what
the original complaint is about.
