where I stand now

[rm]

Many of you know I was seriously unhappy with LJ's first apology. Their most recent news post indicates how vast a restoration of accounts they are doing, and I have to say, I'm a lot happier.

BUT, Six Apart/LJ still has a lot to do to make me calm down. These things include:

a) making things right with users who have been branded pedophiles across the Internet (free journal rename tokens and public apology listing all wronged journals at minimum).
b) retraction of the CEOs statements claiming the right and ability to evaluate of what is art and academic study.
c) restorion of lolita07. Thank you!
d) answering questions about where gay users stand in light of the continued phrasing about banning journals that encourage illegal sexual activity.
e) an admission that they outright lied to users at the beginning saying this wasn't going on.
f) a better explanation of why this happened how and when.

I would also like to see much more from Six Apart.

I am also really unhappy with the amount of time I'm having to spend talking to people who think fic with underage characters in sexual situations promotes the rape of children. (I realize I can't actually blame Six Apart for this, but I feel they should do something to make up for it anyway.) And I do this not from the perspective from a fannish person but from the perspective of someone who is very dedicated to child protection issues and has therefore taken the time to learn what only looks like a problem and what really is a problem.
