So. It looks like Livejournal's new policy is to ban fandom people without contacting them before banning and, instead of striking them through, removing the evidence of them ever existing.
First they say that fandom works are okay.
Then they clarify that actually, it's not okay.
Then they start deleting accounts and removing the evidence. They don't make any announcements over changing the policy on showing the banned people. Nice.
But really, my biggest problem is the one that is probably the most common; I somehow thought that LJ was the internet, and not some regulated commercial service. That I wouldn't have to think about decency issues, that I could write like an adult to other adults. Well. Wrong. I just hope that they stop to where they are now, to their interpretation of what is illegal in the States, and that they don't continue further and Disneyficate the whole thing. If they do, I'm gone.
