Livejournal's Facebooking Twitter Fail - Please Note

re-posted with idioticonion's permission.

------

You'll probably see a lot of these kinds of posts in the next few days, but please can I ask that anyone commenting on my journal (including on f-locked posts) please not repost on Facebook or Twitter?

There's an almighty furor about the lack of opt-out on this new repost feature, because comments on a Real Life Facebook or Twitter account might give away people's more anonymous fandom identities.

While I've assembled some RL friends on this Journal, it is largely still a fandom journal in more ways than one. I do NOT want this to be associated with my Facebook account.

(Please repost this type message to your own account if necessary! Fight the man!)

Facebook/Twitter Fiasco - The Update

jewelledfairy shared this with me this evening and I wanted to make sure you all saw it (just in case you haven't gone to the LJ news feed).

Update: Thank you for taking the time to offer your honest feedback. We understand and appreciate your desire for privacy. We share your concerns. Most of us would not want to publish our LiveJournal usernames or FO comments to Facebook or Twitter either (to the extent we even use them). Please give us a little time to address your concerns. We are listening, and we'll do our best to respond.
