Description

AboutUs is a brand new wiki of websites that anyone can edit. It is currently in Beta.

Wiki size: unknown size

Criticism

AboutUs has been criticized for stealing private information from websites. The website has a bot witch takes information from a website and uses it to make an AboutUs Article. Even websites protected by a robots.txt file are still vulnerable due to the fact that the wiki will still encourage AboutUs users to add information about the website to it.

Articles

The wiki has over 2,000,000 articles, most of them about websites, due to the fact that the bot the website owns automatically creates most of them.
