[talk-ph] Fwd: Another user possibly illegal copying from GMaps

[Timeo Gut]

Nice find about the Nigerian connection.

Regarding DWG involvement, there's still an open ticket 
(#2021042410000096) for this issue. Things were already elevated to them 
back in April [1] 
<https://github.com/OSMPH/papercut_fix/issues/80#issuecomment-826069931> 
due to complete lack of communication. I will ask them to put this on 
hold for now.
