Today, LiveJournal management have demonstrated a serious lack of
understanding in how the internet works, declaring that users are
responsible for the content of the webpages that they link to in their blog
entries. A user points out the obvious flaw: "I get ToS'd because the link's
been redirected to a page full o' porn, even though context clearly shows
that when I originally put up the link that it didn't actually land on a
page of porn?" One wonders how such a long-established blogging company can
be so ignorant about the nature of the world wide web.
