I've yet to hear of any evidence that OSM is being used at all.  I'm sure
someone from our web team might be able to locate Niantic IPs if we really
drilled down and it happened recently enough that we would still have the
logs before logrotate got 'em.  But, IMO, that seems rather far to go for
something for which there is basically only wild conjecture to back so far.
