LiveJournal is now censoring popular interests

LiveJournal is now censoring popular interests, including "bisexuality", "depression", and "fanfiction".

Thank you, eastpath and hubby, for my beautiful paid account... but when it expires, I am SO out of here unless things change. I refuse to support a service that actively discriminates based on sexuality and mental health.

Two LiveJournal protest related links

First, the ljcensor2008 community. Join up and be counted. It's a non-posting community; the goal is simply to get people to join the comm and rack up some numbers.

The second is the One Day Content Strike initiative.

Here's an alternate idea, one that will have a permanent effect without damaging LJ:

ONE DAY CONTENT STRIKE

For one day, make no posts. Make no comments. Let there be NO new content added to LJ.

SUP obviously does not realize that Basic users have given something of value to them, that it is content that drives the site.

So, for one 24-hour period, from midnight GMT to midnight GMT, let's see how many people we can get to pledge to contribute NO CONTENT.

This will create a permanent downward spike in the daily-posts statistics, a permanent reminder of the power of the userbase.

Who's with me, and what date shall it be?

I'm up for it, and will post more information as it becomes available.

One Day Content Strike

ONE DAY CONTENT STRIKE

For one day, Friday, March 21, make no posts. Make no comments. Let there be NO new content added to LJ.
