mark kraft on the sale of lj to sup

I recommend everyone read My thoughts on the sale -- again -- of LiveJournal by Insomnia, who used to be the "all things business" manager of LiveJournal back in the day (2000-2002) and has a lot of insight regarding the recent sale of LJ to the Russian company SUP. There is more info in the comments as well, regarding LJ's data mining capabilities, etc.

The SUP folks probably don't care about porn but if I were a Russian journalist, I would be very, very afraid.

Yeah. At the end of the day, that will keep my off LJ. I do not want to be an incidental party to THAT.
