People often ask me... "J, why don't you get a paid account? Why don't you take advantage of more of the offers that LJ has to give you for just a little cash?"
My friends, there's a reason.
LJ is, right at this very moment, using an external company to track clickthroughs on certain links.
If you've clicked a link, and seen something in your progress bar involving the URL outboundlink.me?
That's LJ tracking the links you're clicking.
Here's more information.
A run down of the whole shebang thus far.
TL;DR?
If you value you privacy and don't like LJ tracking what you click, you might want to at least visit the link to get the opt out command for the admin console.
And me, I'll be keeping my money from LJ's filthy, grubby little hands for a while longer.
