2. Acceptable use
A person may link to and discuss published research. They may not attempt to disrupt the service, submit malicious material, impersonate another person or misuse correction channels.
Automated access, reuse and quotation rules will be defined before launch without restricting lawful criticism or access to public records.
3. Passwordless accounts
