Timwi stated for the record:
Speaking of which. I am wondering to what extent
COPPA applies to
Wikipedia, and whether there is any legal risk for Wikimedia if American
children under 13 years of age use Wikipedia without their parents'
consent?
It does not apply at all. COPPA specifies what information a site is
allowed to collect about children under 13. We don't collect any
applicable information about our users.
