Decision made. I'm deleting journals and leaving LJ.
I'm in the process of deleting all my journals at LJ, and I'm just paranoid enough to wonder why I keep hitting glitches as I navigate this process. When I deleted the first one, Firefox shut down as I attempted to fill in the form explaining why I made this decision. It happened as I typed my objections to Strikethrough '07, corporate censorship of content, LJ's shoddy treatment of abuse survivors, and the reporting of artists to law enforcement over fanart that's certainly not illegal. I was into my second of two brief sentences, so I know it wasn't the length. I can't help but wonder.
I hit another glitch when I tried to log into an account I created to aid in teaching my Women's Lit course. I couldn't remember the password, so I tried my usual three, only for the first time ever, when I failed on my third or fourth attempt, I received a message informing me LJ had temporarily banned my IP address for multiple login failures. I'd appreciate the security measure if not for the bad timing and the fact it's never happened before.
I'll leave this journal up for one or two more days while I add friends at the other sites, but then it's gone. I'm fed up with the neocons now running what used to be a wonderful service. Adios, LJ.

Thanks for friending me on the other journals so quickly. I saw you pop in when I refreshed a moment ago.
Dissertation. Wow. *beams*
