The Wikitravel site seems to be declining in a hurry, even from what was evidently a sad state just several months ago. The main remaining administrator, an employee who goes by IBobi (IB as in Internet Brands), has limited his actions almost exclusively to arguing with other community members and censoring any mention of Wikimedia or Wikivoyage. He has even resorted to removing criticism of Internet Brands or its Wikitravel management, whether or not that criticism mentions forking directly or indirectly, calling it either "vandalism" or claiming to be editing others comments "to conform with policy."
Other than in the process of enforcing telecommunications law, is there any way to challenge the presumed immunity of a particular entity under Section 230? It seems to me, as a layperson, that Internet Brand's role in Wikitravel has penetrated whatever imaginary barrier must exist since they are now firmly in control of all content rules, site policies and every other aspect of project management. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l
