On the strike

Regarding the content strike:
The censored interests came back quickly enough and with little enough fuss that I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and accept that it was a glitch. But only just.
I understand that LJ is a business, and there were business reasons behind removing basic accounts. I think it was the wrong decision, but that's not my call.
It's the tactics and attitude I don't like.
One day shouldn't be too hard. It'll probably be good for me, anyway. Like breaking an addiction.
I don't want to leave LJ, I'm too settled here. But after reading some of this, I'm tempted to at least mirror things over at somewhere like Insane Journal.
