This is chilling. On the other hand I don't feel that us setting our own parameters is too bad. If I consider some of my content really bad, then I can set the parameters to protect from minors.But then again I may not. What's bad is someone else being able to flag us, then giving the moderators the "power" to decide what free speech is offensive or not, which can be very subjective. Maybe we should all start flagging the lj moderators on all their entries. And the lj news bulletins too :-)
Sounds like maybe someone has been stirring them up in a legal sense (we are lawsuit crazy). So they are scrambling to somewhat cover their asses, just in case, or to get "them" off their backs.
