Around the same time, the company acquired Curse LLC and their services, one of them notably being another wiki host, Gamepedia. In 2021, Fandom's TOU was updated recently to ban "deadnaming" (i.e., referring to someone the original birth-given name of) people suffering from [[gender confusion]] (i.e. [[transgender]]s), and blocking anyone who dares to refer to someone by their birth gender.<ref>https://archive.ph/sW0ll</ref> Fandom also tends silence those who have conservative or independent viewpoints. They also silence and ban those who speak out against [[homosexuality]] and [[gay marriage]].

Users make their own wikis, by making wikis for their own topic, like games, movies, TV shows, universes history, etc, and sometimes businesses. LyricWiki, the largest wiki with over 2 million pages, got blocked from editing. (The Wikia Staff blocked users and even LyricWiki administrators permanently from editing due to pornography concerns).
