LJ Content Strike Friday March 21

This is a content boosting thing, as I've only seen one mention of it (via kgola)

The short version is, there is a planned content strike (no comments, posts, feeds) from 12a-12p GMT- I believe that'd be ETA: 6-6 8-8 Eastern. (thanks, weegee and Supercheesegirl)
The whys--
Many in our community are disturbed by high-handed measures being done by LJ admin.
-discontinuing free accounts for new users (nfc re: old free accts)
    -making decisions with not much regard to their advisory board
-not enough information sharing with users
ETA: -censoring user interests This bit is called into question

For a more complete write up, visit beckyzoole's posts on the logistics and reasons.

Like I said- signal boosting. I'm not interested in philosophical debates on if this is going to make any difference. You are welcome to debate it on your own page, obvy.
ETA: I'm undecided if I'll actually participate.
ETA: liamstliam has wote a post about this which talks about what's going on and has a level of snark that made me smile a lot
ETA: And darkrosetiger's side.

The previous post may well be the most edited I've ever done. I'm also at about 90/10 decided not to bother w/ the "strike"
