This really was just a tiny straw for me, but it's sort of one of those things where I'm tired of my primary fannish outlet being more of a source of stress than one of fun. Like I said, it's mostly me and things that have nothing to do with anyone else.
There are two things about the acquisition that are adding to my sense of stress about it -- one, that I don't want my credit card and credit information on Russian servers. Since I'm already in their databases, and LJ has always been unclear on their purging policy, I can't know that even deleting my LJ will remove that information, but it's still not making me happy. The other thing is that if the year-old article is giving an accurate picture, it's entirely possible that the flagging and the acquisition are not concomitant by coincidence -- that the purchasing company wanted that feature for a particular reason.
Even if that's total paranoia, and I fully grant that's likely, the more I think about this flagging thing, the more I hate it, and the less I want to be a part of it.
Mostly, though, I need to focus my time and stress elsewhere right now, and it's easier just to say, giving myself a time-out, now. :)
