An Issue Of Freedom Of Speech

[poliphilo]

 Listen folks, this is not the time to quit LJ.

This article  explains what is going on.  LJ is the main platform for free speech in Russia, the hackers are trying to take it down. If we withdraw our custom we're doing exactly what the bad guys want.

Hang on in there.

The fact that LJ is still so popular in one major country also shows there's nothing wrong with its basic model or featureset.

The shifting tides of popularity have as much to do with fadishness as anything else.

Posts with custom privacy on FailBook? Wow! Amazing! Actually, I've had that on LJ for years. If only more people used it...

LJ gives me exactly what I want from this sort of site. I've never bothered with any of the others.
