Let it be known, that I will never cross post any entry made of Livejournal using these new Facebook and Twitter buttons. I will not violate an f-lock in place.
It is my wish that people do not do this in my Livejournal as well.
Public entries are public and thus are available for the whole Internet to read and while I appreciate the courtesy of asking permission or being informed when I'm linked somewhere, I am aware that it is a courtesy.
Let's move on.

rm I read that Livejournal hatched a deal with Facebook.
This is upsetting, because it means that even if the LJ staff didn't die after the stampede of "No" that's been happening over the past couple of days, their hands are most likely tied by contract and the cross post feature is here to stay.
Alas.
However! Not all hope is lost! Via
51stcenturyfox you can work around the feature, detailed in her post.
You'll note that when you comment on my LJ, the twitter and facebook options are not there, you too can be rid of them by following the instruction in
51stcenturyfox's post or just read what I copied from her (which I did without permission, I hope she doesn't mind!).
I've implemented it and find it absolutely fine! No accidental cross post from anyone! Huzza!

Okay! Take this chunk o' code:
.b-repost-item, FORM#qrform > TABLE[style="border: 1px solid black;"]:last-child TD[style="vertical-align: top; text-align: right;"]:first-child { display: none !important; }
Cut and paste it into the bottom of your custom CSS stylesheet box, which is here.
In your options, you can't have custom comment pages disabled. So under: Disable customized comment pages for your journal, choose "No"
If someone posts all comments to facebook or twitter by default it won't work, but it gets rid of those friggin' choices on your journal for most people, at any rate.
