This still amuses me. Free The LiveJournal Three! Possible because it's late and I'm immresed in my IRA research and well, I'm trying to make sense of it all and it's nice to have things like this to lugh about so there.
But I wanted to gloat, dammit! Whine. I wanted one of the really rabid anti's get c&d'ed. (*coughTecough*) I wanted to point and laugh and go "HA-ha! You got C&D'ed and I didn't. Now who's risking legal actions, huh?" And I can't and that pissed me off.
And yeah, it's the reason why she was C&D'ed that sort of bugs me. The incertainty about fanfic is ... annoying, for lack of a better word. Basically, FPS is safe as long as no one draws TPTB's attention to it. It gives just about every Joe Shmuck with a chip on his shoulder and a stick up his ass has power over me and that's not something I like.
The whole JHA thing got me thinking, too. If I get C&D'ed tomorrow about, say, RS-X or SEX or any of the personal RPS sites (highly unlikely considering the lack of traffic, but whatever) I'm pretty sure I'd do whatever was in my power to keep the stories up. If I get a C&D from the Tolkien heirs tomorrow, chances are the archive'll go down, if only because Id be on shaky ground, legally.

I'm babbling. Stop me.
