Friday's Content Strike
Mar. 19th, 2008 02:36 pmI support the content strike. It's worth a shot, anyway.
The one-day content strike is on for this Friday, March 21, from midnight GMT to midnight GMT.
For 24 hours, we will not post or comment to LJ. Not in our own journals, not in communities. Not publicly, privately, or under friends-lock.
This is a protest that will have long-lasting effects, showing up forever in the daily posting statistics.
This is a protest that will not harm LJ in the long run, as leaving LJ might do.
This is a protest that will demonstrate the power of community, as all users unite to support Basic users and the concept of adfree space.
This is a protest that will educate the new owners that LJ is driven by user-created content.
I shan't, however, be about at any rate until Easter Sunday, and probably not much for the week after that, when I'm off jaunting round Thuringia.
