Public Rights of Way in eastern Hampshire (UK) are being tagged as access=private (the mapper states this is because they have been established by easement). This results in ways on displayed maps loosing losing their identity as footpaths or bridleways and being indistinguishable from genuine private ways. This means that the map has become useless for hikers, cyclists and other users of PROW in the affected area. If this continues OSM will suffer serious (and probably irreversible) damage to its reputation in the UK.
