[kwlug-disc] CBC embedding OpenStreetMap instead of Google Maps

Saw a story today where the embedded map looked quite different; turns 
out it was OSM, not the usual Google Map.

Not sure what brought about the change, would be curious if I missed any 
public discussion about it.


Here's the first time I've encountered it:

I've also noticed that BBC has had a "click to embed" on tweets for a 
while now.


Seems a trend is afoot.
