Contractual conniptions
After a hiatus, I have reluctantly concluded that Livejournal is broadly getting away with its imposition of new T&C. Certainly in the limited but significant sense that there's no way I'll ever recover the money I paid for a permanent account if I stop using it.
Once I treat what I paid for a permanent account as a sunk cost, and given privacy is not an issue for me, it becomes clear that the known consequences of walking away are no worse than any possible consequence of leaving my Dreamwidth→Livejournal crossposting switched on. In that spirit, I've reluctantly accepted their new T&C.
Alas, I fully expect that Livejournal is now even more of a desolate wasteland than it was four months ago when the shit hit the fan. Anyone still here?
