long and useless

Apparently, there's some sort of mini-purge of sorts on LJ. I've been hearing and reading dissenting opinions on both sides of the argument on whether LJ Abuse had the right in suspending the journals. I'm going to reserve my judgment for now, since it seems too early since I don't know most of the story to have the whole picture and there could be other things going on as I type this out.

There's been suggestions for 'lj interest' modification which I think is a pretty good preventative measure. For the moment.

Here's a running list of accounts suspended/deleted over this event. It seems to trend toward Harry Potter, yaoi-related interests (shota, chan), incest, and pedophilia communities.

A post involving the maintainer of pornish_pixies in regards to the suspension.

The whole thing makes me a bit uneasy.
