Two things

First:

So fanfiction.net has changed its policy and will no longer host NC17 stories, or Real-Person Slash. Which has caused some heated arguing here and there. During which the word "censorship" has been occasionally used. Which touches on a pet peeve of mine.

Refusing to assist is not the same as preventing!

fanfiction.net are no longer assisting in spreading NC17 stories. Whatever you think of NC17 stories or fanfiction.net, that isn't censorship. It isn't censorship until someone prevents you from spreading it at all. fanfiction.net doesn't have that power. On the Internet today, nobody has that power.

And all that goes double for the stinking little cretins who keep mailing newsmaster at the ISP I work for and yelling about censorship because they can't get their porn for free any more.

Second:

Apparently, Yahoo has set a limit on the amount of mail their yahoogroups mailing lists can keep archived. This has pissed some people using yahoogroups off. To this I say: Yay! The less people who like Yahoogroups, the better.

So, to the few who read this: If you're about to start a mailing list, and it seems yahoogroups or some other ad-infested hellhole is your only option for it, ask me first. If I find your list more than marginally interesting, I'll host it for you. On my own server (well, technically it's my wife's machine, but...). No promises or anything, but, ask.
