Also AI Bots are destroying the maps and make identifying extremely difficult to impossible

I have also found locations and have reported them to OSM with screen shots and location. Someone identifying the locations as, “Playful Aandy Bad Boy” hopefully OSM will see the email, and delete the user and their “edits”

I am putting in roads and powerlines that exists in the real world using aerial imagery.

Sorry Maps Man, I was not referring to you. I meant that the AI bots were put by someone that has a problem with Andy Townsend.
I searched online and this person does not seem so hatable, it looks strange.
