Wikiless, a self-hosted Wikipedia proxy, has been temporarily taken down from Codeberg at request of Wikimedia Legal: https://orenom.fi/
@mckinley@mckinley.cc da fuq?! Why?! 😳
@prologic@twtxt.net TL;DR:
- Wikimedia Legal Enforcement has contacted Codeberg citing quote-on-quote “licensing / trademark infringement issues in the content”
- Codeberg has made the repository private (i.e. it can only be viewed by contributors)
- The author is making changes to the software in order to remove the infringing content
@mckinley@twtxt.net But what part of the software / content was infringing? 🤔
@prologic@twtxt.net Don’t know. It’ll be interesting to look at the commits when it comes back up.
@mckinley@twtxt.net Very weird! 😳 Keep us updated! 🙏
