Thank you very much for your answers!

I see quite a difference between a local group trying to promote OSM with the country name and an organization making over $3 million a year (https://www.hotosm.org/downloads/2018-Annual-Report.pdf see page 23).
In my opinion, any organization that earns more than a certain amount of money (e.g. half a million or even a million) should not be able to use OSM in its name without broad OSMF member approval.
