Actually, Wikia is threatened overtly - the concept that any source of information can be accessed, including a poster's IP address and location, are a huge issue. If one posts a politically sensitive topic, this kind of invasive surveillance gives government the capacity to hone in on the poster and to monitor any activity through their ISP. Though Wikia is not necessarily threatened to be shut down directly, this process will eventually lead to censorship - whether through retaliatory government action or a fearful withdrawl of free speech by citizens concerned over such retaliation. And isn't this the very spirit which Wikia is designed to foster?
