Does Wikipedia take any federal funding?

  > Does Wikipedia take any federal funding? As a charity they are tax exempt - that could be revoked. The US government could declare them to be a foreign influence operation and require them to register as foreign agents. They could add a requirement that everyone on Wikipedia must declare who they are before editing. They could restrict various pages from being displayed in the US. They could even block or even cease the domain if they wanted to play hardball. Do not underestimate the levers of pressure that could be deployed here.

    They could put them on a variety of lists that would prevent them from banking in the U.S. which would mean they couldn’t receive donations, etc.
