So much spam...
I finally went ahead and completely disabled anonymous comments on my LJ.
For a while I had set them to screened by default, but really the only anon comments I get anymore are spam.
The only reason I had them enabled in the first place is that there was a time when some family members actually read my LJ and wanted to comment on it without making an account. But I don't think any of them ever really follow it anymore. Most of my posts are friends-only by default anyways. So I don't know why I left anon comments enabled for old public posts. Seems absurd now that I think of it...
