Boycotting...
Boycotts are stupid.
This is my personal opinion. They do nothing to change policy, they make people hate other people and they divide us. Boycotting LJ or leaving is not going to change their policies. You signed a TOS - and they have the right to do what they like on their site.
Leaving LJ only means these people win. They disband strong groups of fandom friends.
Talking to LJ might help... this is more constructive than going crazy.
