REMOVED: Was way out of line.
No, it shouldn't, and it isn't. The maps belong to this company called 'Blizzard', we just make them.

All your .scx and .scm are belong to Blizzard Entertainment. They're not your property. Intelligent and logical.

Yup, restriction programs are illegal. OSMAP is a way to stop illegal map restriction. Thanks for shining the spotlight on how map restriction isn't just immoral, but also illegal!

It's illegal, but Blizzard doesn't care that much. This sort of thing happens all the time. Take a look at Penguin Plug: It used to be illegal but is now considered a necessary evil because it is required to play on WGT, a ladder on Europe. This sort of thing could happen with OSMAP.
They're not yours. They're Blizzard's. Also, if map restriction is so great, why didn't Blizzard make it a part of all StarCraft maps from version 1.0? Obviously, they don't care about what you perceive to be rights.

The fact is, All your .scm and .scx are belong to Blizzard. You are not allowed to use third party programs to tamper with them and restrict them from the public. OSMAP reverses the illegal map restriction. Therefore, OSMAP is good. If you disagree, you are wrong.

Okay, so if OSMAP is illegal, then it should be removed. But wait, that means you can't use map restriction since it's also illegal! I win.

I see. This place is corrupted by greed. Luckily, there is a way to stop fearful idiots from restricting learning and that is OSMAP. I think I should take it upon myself to liberate every map I come across for the greater good of this community.

Pessimism like that is why they don't. Reach out to them instead of lobbing feces upon them from your floating castle. We all started as ignorant pubbies, but because maps are open source and are meant to be, we were able to learn. Oppressing the masses by restricting maps is not how this community will improve.
Every person who puts their name on a map that they don't own is greedy. They desire respect that they don't deserve, because all your .scm and .scx are belong to Blizzard. Put aside your greed and stop putting your name on Blizzard's maps.

Looks rather repetitive to me. You were given anwsers to the whole illegal thing, etc... but you just keep repeating it and repeating it.

Yeah, because that makes sense.
Now this topic has moved completely away from anything worthwhile.
GG topic.
