What? You don't like your privacy taken? Neither do I...  
Found this at [livejournal.com profile] geeklikewoah 

You're probably all aware that Livejournal now allows you to repost comments to Facebook and Twitter. This is a very unpopular new feature. Firefox has an addon that hides the new Facebook / Twitter repost ticky boxes. But here's a little line of code you can use to make it so that no one, no matter what browser they're using, can repost comments.

.b-repost-item {display:none}


Here's what to do:

1. Go to Custom CSS in Customize Journal Style.

2. Copy and paste .b-repost-item {display:none} into the Custom stylesheet box and save changes.

Voila! As you can see the boxes are hidden on the comm now :)

FYI I did not write this but it was doing the rounds on my f-list and I encourage you to share it.

does it repost them automatically?
I don't see what the problem is if you can just... not turn it on?

(btw, your layout is like woah :D)

Basically, from what I understand, if you comment on a person's f-locked post and link it to your FB or Twitter, it cracks the lock (for lack of a better term) and everyone can see the f-locked post.

I don't have anything f-locked that no one else in my family doesn't know, but I would hate for that information to be floating around FB, especially where privacy is not their primary focus. LOL

At least if someone tries to link to an f-lock post on LJ directly, they get a big ol' denied post.

Exactly. Which is why people are panicking/getting totally upset. But, just throw that css code in your custom CSS style (I threw it in after my current code) and it seems to work like a charm.

Personally, I like the line I draw in the sand between RL and my fangirlness, thank you.
