What I've been lead to understand these past few days is that it wasn't actually the choice of the LJ owners to move servers, that they were strong-armed by the Russian Federation, and that's basically because of concerns over what the Russian users are saying now that the elections are coming up. So I've seen a lot of people on ONTD for example (a VERY active comm which would definitely on LJ's radar) wondering why they are still allowed to post LGBT content and political commentary without issue, and my interpretation of it all is that LJ themselves have zero interest in driving away their international userbase and censoring us. And I doubt the Russian Government cares very much either about what people from other countries want to use their LJ for, I think it's purely about watching the political commentary that comes from Russian users, anything else really doesn't have much relevance to them
