Just swapped out Google Maps for OpenStreetMap on my website via the very excellent leafletjs. It's quite a bit simpler to use than Google's API and a little less Google in my life is always a good thing. That and one less bill to check each month (admittedly that has always been £0.00).

Small UK websites, user-to-user services and even computer games that are completely safe and well managed, are faced with difficult paperwork, risks assessments, registration and fines thanks to the Online Safety Act. Even personal blogs with comments are forced to undergo these difficult tests and compliance tasks.
