The Openstreetmap page talks about anonymizing results, but I don't see how this can happen. OSM currently requires a login to upload data, and it is necessary that they be able to prove who uploaded what. If they don't have this transparency, they will not survive the first lawsuit from any mapping company that wants to shut them down (and I imagine they probably all do).
