Did Wikia violate laws by having so many follow-links from Wikipedia?

I’ve never heard of laws against follow links – that would be absurd. If you’re asking if Google penalizes Wikipedia because of this, I would suspect that the negative effect of all of the follow links is counter balanced by all of the user generated content, and the constant revision by its users.
