Further to that hacking ...

[blamebrampton]

I joined marmalade_fish  to check out updates on the hacking of sarahtales , and two important points were raised.

The first is that if you have sarahtales  friended, the hackers currently have access to all of your private posts. So it may be a good idea to defriend for a little while.  ETA, she's back, but you should still consider the fishies, it looks like a fun comm, too!

The second is that there is a suspicion the hacker is not an opportunistic Russian con artist, but someone from fandom acting malevolently. Given some of fandom's history, that does not seem as unlikely as we might hope. Why some people feel it's necessary to pour crap on those who add hard work to their talent in order to become successful is a mystery to me. Wankers, the lot of them.

That's Sarah's comment, from marmalade_fish. I had thought that it was a particularly clever con artist who had picked their target well, but she seems to believe there could be people closer to her who wish her ill, and I must say that such a thing is not unheard of, alas.

I am still not wholly comfortable with the copying of comments, but I have copied all of my entries across. Maybe I should just make a totally secret journal and copy across all the comments, too?

Mine is now copied across, and I am slowly making all lj-only posts private.

THANK GOD! THE PORN IS SAFE! ;-)
