Fandom Hysterics
May. 29th, 2007 11:47 pmIt seems that LJ has managed to stir up quite a bit in the way of hysterics between my leaving work and my getting online tonight. I've been keeping up with the FanLib pandamonium, but this is new and different... I think.
I have no current plans to f-lock my journal more than it already is. If LJ is cracking down on fanfiction users, then I will deal with that then. But, from what I can see... the crack down is not aimed at fandom or fanfiction, but at pedophilia.
For a more coherent explanation, I'd advise reading this post at
fandom_lawyers.
Perhaps this is the first wave of the new policed internet era. Perhaps this is actually the work of corporate gurus at FanLib. Perhaps it won't blow over... but, deep breaths! Let's see what happens...
