A bulk post shredding tool for LJ

[crazyscot]

As a visual protest, I wrote a tool that bulk-shreds the contents of an LJ.

In case anybody wishes to join me, I have shared the tool. ljshred@github | just the script. You'll need Python 2.7. Command-line only. No warranty. Use at own risk. May contain nuts.

I may or may not delete my LJ now that I have run this, but for the time being you can see the effect over on http://crazyscot.livejournal.com/ .

How did you manage to delete your LJ without agreeing to the new ToS? I'd like to be able to do that myself. It's outrageous that I've got to agree to the things if the reason I want to delete my journal is because I DON'T agree with them!

You turn off the "scripts". I installed Ghosterly, then disabled the tracking scripts on LJ, which in turn turned off the
the user agreement pop-up. It doesn't give you a lot of flexibility, the most I could do was delete my journal.
