The data
Every fact here carries the date somebody last confirmed it while standing in the place, and how many people have. That date is the useful part, and it is why this is published openly rather than kept.

The laptop policy is the one nothing else has. In 2026 the rules are time windows, as in "no laptops 11:30 to 13:30 on weekdays and none at weekends": no general place dataset carries that, and a review cannot express it.

Place names and coordinates come from OpenStreetMap contributors under ODbL, and carry that licence with them. The facts contributed here are CC BY-SA 4.0: use them, quote them, build on them, and say where they came from and when they were confirmed. The date is not decoration, it is the difference between a fact and a rumour.
