The old thread died naturally & repeating the same points won't bring up anything new, so I think it's time to put this gripe to a rest. Oasis may be a drastic shift, but it has all the same features & won't be left in the dust by wikis, scripts, or FANDOM.

And that's why it's a lie. Monobook wasn't illegal under anything. The tracking data wasn't illegal. They just wanted to try getting people to see more ads.
