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.
