Due to Livejournal enacting the ability to cross-post your comments to other networking sites irrespective of the privacy settings of the journal in which you are posting them...

"If I find out that ANYONE is reposting things from my journal to their Facebook or Twitter, even if it's their own comments, YOU ARE UNCONDITIONALLY AND WHOLLY BANNED FROM MY JOURNALS AND ANY COMMUNITIES I CREATED AND MAINTAIN. There will be no second chances on this. My journals and my Facebook do not mix. Fuck that shit." (- ganked from ariestess via moonvoice)

IMO, locked posts are locked for a reason. There is no way to know how locked down a post is unless it's your own (which is as it should be). Anyone who is so disrespectful of my privacy as to use this 'feature' on my journal is not my friend. You get one chance with the privacy portion of my trust, and then it's gone.

The parts of my life that are connected to the disparate versions of 'me' on my journal(s) and on my Facebook are separate for a reason. Anyone who connects them for other people is not my friend, they are actively playing with my safety without my consent.

That makes sense - presumably other 'social networking' sites use different parameters for their privacy settings.

I miss the Six Apart days, when Team Eljay wasn't frakking with everything on a weekly basis :-S

Problem is, the person whose post you were commenting on can't control whether you can crosspost or not. If you have it enabled, you can crosspost any comment you make to ANY post, including posts that are locked down with all comments screened.

Well, any of my personal friends can control what I do with my comments on their journals, because I'm unfashionably old-fashioned and have never reposted without permission!
