that’s not what the previous poster was talking about. They were talking about commercial use of the data.

Unless they weren't and it was a genuine confusion of OpenStreetMap with something like MapBox which is a paid service to embed OSM-based maps. I merely clarified because not everyone can be expected to know everything.
