I don't think that's Kit's point - LJ is not a part of WSFA. If someone wants the world to read their LJ, they offer the address in their sig; if not, they don't. I have to question the timing of the post about LJ - a weekend where people were very likely to be away and out of touch. I know we were. Also it should not have been opting out especially when it is noted that people do not immediately identify themselves. I know that the date of the post is June 30th, but I could swear I do not remember reading that posting until the quick sign on I did on Friday, the only time I got online in the last five days.
