LJ just keep fucking up don't they

[mcmurphy79]

Thanks to fenjer for re-posting this for her friends and bringing it to my attention. It seems LJ has screwed up on it's security settings again.

your friends locked entries can be "shared" by anyone on your friends list in their own journals - and there's nothing you can do about it!

worse still it seems you can share them on FB and Twatter too! WTF?!!

It goes without saying I will NOT be doing this to anyone on my friends list - not fair and I am also sure it goes without saying that neither would any of you.

Having said that please feel free to share this entry if you wish to.

I'm pretty sure the share on fb and Twitter buttons are disabled on friends locked entries. The whole thing seems weird anyway because I'm still able to ctrl+c your entry and link it to you on either!

I'm not gonna, obvious-like :)

They are automatically greyed out if the entry is friends locked. You can just select whether you want to see the buttons at all:

WTF?!?!?! That is so jacked up of LJ. Also, if a friend does that to someone, they're not really a friend. Stupid.
