Can Stand Up Will Stand Up

I found this community this morning. I'm cross-posting the entry I made in my personal journal last night. It's more emotional than legalistic but I wanted to share it--

I’ve just been catching up on livejournal f-list after the holiday weekend. Needless to say I am shocked and concerned to learn about the suspension of communities including--

Comments

Watch mentioning their name, I've heard rumors they're searching for mentions of it and they're tracking people that way. I don't want to sound paranoid, but better safe than sorry. :/

I said it in another comment, but--

Not only can LJ get feedback, but so can the ACLU/the Media. CNN loves this kind of thing, to be honest.

*salivates at the idea of CNN getting this* How would one go about that, I wonder...

It's in the news!

Just the messenger. I found this page through a news site.

Thanks for the link. It's exciting to be quoted but also sort of scary, I'm a pretty minor blogger and fan fiction writer and this could bring me to the attention of people I'd rather not be noticed by but still, I stand by what I say here and I'm not going to delete or lock down my personal or fiction journals. I honestly don't like a lot of the material I see in my fandoms, but this censorship sets a dangerous precedent and needs to be opposed.
