Thanks for the report, we're looking into sorting out this attribution issue at Mapbox. * Mikel Maron * +14152835207 @mikel s:mikelmaron

Burgerking is using the static image api from mapbox:

So perhaps mapbox should be asked why attribution is not visible in the static image api.

I notices a new user added a fast food node [1] in Spokane, WA. The name was entered as BK. Assuming it was probably a Burger King, I did a search and found that it was actually a Burger King restaurant. What I noticed was their map [2] was identical to OSM.
I sent a message via their contact me link on the page asking that they comply with our terms of use.
Has anyone else noticed Burger King using OSM data before?

On a side note, I did send the user a message asking to verify the name. First time user with MAPS.ME.
