Maybe I'm just not digging deep enough, but I can't find Beacon and Livejournal mentioned in the same sentence anywhere on the Internets. if true, it's scary, but what's the source for that? I haven't been following any of the drama very closely, so I think I've missed some important stuff. I've looked at all the boycott links I can find, and nobody seems to have a reliable source for the belief that Livejournal is spying on us.
What I did find out about Beacon is that Facebook's been using it for a while (to "send stories to your profile"), so LJ didn't "create" it. Still not sure of its connection with LJ, though.
