This is very cool but it subverts the copyright attribution mechanism
within openstreetmap and so if a single person uploads copyrighted data
through it and someone notices and sends us a takedown notice then every
edit would have to be removed.

Could you please shut it down or implement user login as a priority?

Unfortunately we do need to display clear due diligence on this.
