Editing EduVULCAN (section)

====Legal threats====
In the beginning of June, VULCAN started sending out cease-and-desist letters to third-party app developers, ordering them to cease app development completely and make all apps display a message that was allegedly prepared by Vulcan themselves.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /> As such, nearly all forks and clients of the app stopped development and were updated to only display a static message,<ref>[https://github.com/wulkanowy/messages/blob/c3b888cfb45e3b0419a9cb25714c6307ca3063a1/generator/src/main/kotlin/end.kt github.com/wulkanowy/messages/ - end.kt]</ref> and their respective app store pages were removed in June and July.

On August 22, 2024, just before the new school year began, [https://github.com/wezuwiusz/neowulkanowy Wezuwiusz], a fork of Wulkanowy preparing for compatibility with eduVULCAN, also received a cease-and-desist letter. It was allegedly sent by one of the biggest law firms in Poland and was accusing the developers of:

*Trademark infringement,
*Unfair competition,
*Damaging their server infrastructure by scraping, allegedly leading to higher server costs, and
*Harming Vulcan's reputation.

Additionally, Vulcan criticized the [https://czyvulcanapojebalo.pl/assets/10.webp developer’s review of the official app on Google Play] and referred to unofficial apps as "parasites".<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" />

The eduVULCAN [[terms of service]] were also adjusted to forbid the use of apps that "automate logging in and receiving data from the website" for "security and confidentiality reasons" and to clarify that Vulcan "may employ technological measures to block access to the service using such software" (§3, section 11).<ref>[https://eduvulcan.pl/dokumenty/regulamin eduvulcan.pl - Terms of Service "Regulamin"]</ref> These measures appeared to prepare the way for the new account system.
