dewline: "Fail" (failure)

...of why I left Livejournal back in 2017.

The new terms of service once the server farms were moved from San Francisco to Moskva required - to my understanding - that users conduct themselves on LJ as if they lived in Russia.

Well, Vladimir Putin and his cronies have put forth another reminder of what that means, and why I want nothing to do with such practices: a new batch of constitutional amendments.

Details here in this article by Andrew Roth for The Guardian:

Once we start taking down world leaders, though, where will it end? With ALL of them? I might cry.

This is why I jumped.

In Russia, it is a criminal offence to be as I am.

Sorry for existing, I'm sure...........
