I link-gathered (http://shusu.livejournal.com/964599.html), and lirren reports this. I'm going to shamelessly steal it w/o permission since it's mostly a direct quote.
Most of you have probably heard of Perverted Justice, if not previous to Strikethrough 2007, then certainly in some of the many comments over the last couple of days. This is a group who is somewhat similar to WoI, although far more legitimate.
Well, PJ has now posted this on their site:
"LiveJournal continues stupidity... just differently Today LiveJournal/SixApart deleted a ton of LJ's that violated their "terms of service." We went after LiveJournal/SixApart months ago, with a very specific list of pedophile blogs and communities. Not only were the staff at LiveJournal/SixApart beyond condescending and rude in their replies, they defended the advocacy of pedophilia and pedophile communities as being acceptable under their Terms of Service, something we contested in our original Writeup about them.
So today, LJ decides to finally do something about the pedophile communities that had sprung up on their service. However, rather than listening to us months ago, they decided to just wipe out whole fields of communities whether they were related to those who advocate child rape or not. We're not quite sure who is running the show over at LJ, but until they state without condition that actual pedophile activists and those promoting child rape are disallowed from their service, we will continue to list them as an aggressive Corporate Sex Offender.
Apparently LiveJournal can't tell the difference between what a pedophile community is and a Harry Potter fan-fiction community despite being told months ago which is what."
