One of older versions of Draft Attribution Guidelines effectively proposed it, allowing hiding attribution
on all mobile devices - including full screen map apps on smartphones.

"In addition, mobile devices may have attribution after one interaction. Examples of
one interaction include “one click,” such as an icon or link that opens a pop-up or new
webpage, or a swipe, drag, pinch, etc."

This would claim that hiding attribution behind "i" symbol that will not be clicked by
a typical user is somehow fulfilling ODbL requirement to have notice "reasonably calculated"
to reach all user.

And nowadays people use smartphones more and more compared to PC and other.
