Migrants to IJ, 2007

Reason number eleventy-billion why buying a perm account was a dumb idea:

Three of the four charity organizations LJ members were donating to has strong ties to the venture capitalist looking to buy Six Apart. Yup, that's right, they basically got LJers to dump money into the pockets of the corporate entities LJ is trying so desperately to please. More moderate heads have pointed out that this is probably a point in this guy's favor

Vote Oulangi! Hat-tip to oulangi for the excellent detective work.

Hmmm... maybe we should suggest to the not entirely insane fandom people who are insistent on staying on LJ that they should write this guy and point out that Six Apart is having some censorship issues, since he turns out to be pretty cool after all? And that, like, it wouldn't be cool to hand them money?
