Attribution on map viewer #277

/r/openstreetmap thinks it's great that you use OpenStreetMap data in your interesting project.

But, in your viewer you show OSM data, and the attribution ('Terms of use') in the lower right links to Google when using the 'OSM' and 'Carto light' layers. This is at least wrong, but might also be illegal, since the map should be properly attributed, as specified on the OpenStreetMap Copyright page.

IANAL

Hello @habi,

Anyplace is an open source project that anyone can contribute. We are using the google maps engine in order to render the tiles from OSM and Carto Light that's why all the links are pointing at Google. Nevertheless, you are absolutely right and we need to update the code in order to show the appropriate attribution on the map. We will update it as soon as possible.

Thanks, C.
