User blog comment:Ciencia Al Poder/Portable Infoboxes, the first step into Wikia taking control over our content/@comment-5558012-20170501151446/@comment-168424-20170510224418


 * "...and whether Fandom therefore has the authority to interfere and forcibly upgrade their infoboxes to Portable. I mean, the Terms of Use probably explicitly state that Fandom has such permission..."

The Terms of Use definitely don't explicitly state that Fandom has permission to force Portable Infoboxes. That's ridiculous.

Take a look: http://www.wikia.com/Terms_of_use

There is no mention of forcing specific content. No mention of "portable" or "infobox" or "mobile". Even mentions of the "interface" or "interfere" don't explicitly talk about many things which are considered ToU violations, like modifying the sidebar to de-emphasize things that Fandom likes or changing the global nav, wiki-wide.
