Totally agreed. But I stuck through the other issues on LJ before I became migration-minded this round. So little by little it' s a trickle of people being offended enough by the corporate practices to make a move.
Yeah, I admire ethical consumers who take a lot of time to learn about all their products sources and their practices and consume accordingly. My only efforts at being an ethical consumer in other spheres are to not shop at Wal-mart and avoid buying gas at Exxon/Mobil and buying at Citgo when I can because I like Ole Hugo. And honoring strikes--I boycotted Safeway while the strike there was going on.
Also, 6A and SUP is changing for the worse the model of how LJ was managed from when Brad owned it--it's important to fight to preserve the principles and rights you do not want taken away--or they will definitely be taken and you will never get them back.
