Um... Unless something's changed and I wasn't made aware of it, your login history should only be visible to you and no one else (with the possible exceptions of the Abuse Prevention Team for obvious reasons, and of ops, who would typically have access to such database information for administrative purposes). The only time I would ever be concerned about someone seeing my login history is if I foolishly left my LJ account logged in on a computer accessible to other people or if my account got hacked into... and even then, that'd be the LEAST of my privacy concerns if either happened

Agreed.

Are you seriously suggesting that LJ staff shouldn't have the right to monitor logins to their service?

[lady_angelina]

My point exactly, since they may even be legally obliged to in case they are subpoenaed for criminal activity from one of the users or something.

Besides, I suspect that the ops have far better things to do than to look through all the login histories of the millions of users just for the fun of it.

Unless you're already playing pretty fast and loose with your account security, you're the only one who can see that information (exceptions to this were detailed in the comment above, so I won't get into that).

As someone who once used the Manage Logins page to verify that my account had been accessed by someone other than myself, I'm not for this suggestion.
