The attacks against LiveJournal

[pjthompson]

I'm staying because LJ is home and also because of what this insightful post says, and because of what the BBC says.

Thanks to sartorias and msstacy13 for the links.

ETA: asakiyume pointed me to this article from Time magazine on the hacker attacks.

I hate bullies. I hate bullies with a political ax to grind who want to limit free speech.

So I'm staying, dammit.

Having said that, I am backing everything up to Dreamwidth and my website blog. Never a bad thing to protect years worth of content.

Glad to hear it. I would miss you, and your daily quotes.

Thank you!

Hooray!

After all the folks I've seen leave, it makes me happy to see that so many people are staying.

I think I'll be here until LJ goes belly up or I do. ;-D

marrael had this link to an article in Time magazine, too. The more coverage this gets, the more likely the fight back is to be successful. I'm encouraged.

Thanks! I've added it to my post.

Was it maybe in your journal that I saw the BBC link? That one was good too.

(sorry for my braindead-ness. I saw your reply to my comment, and thought we were writing on my journal not yours--but it's yours, and yes indeed, you were the one who posted the BBC link! D'oh!)

I sometimes do this, especially if I am replying from the messages inbox on LJ!

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

Phew! Glad I'm not the only one.

I'm staying, just as I stayed after the kerfuffle that led me to getting a DreamWidth account; I just post to both. And spend more time reading lj than I do reading DreamWidth.

Same here! :-D
