Either I'm entirely too trusting
or you lot are panicing about nothing. Yes, LJ has been sold (and if you're not watching ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
news then you ought to be).
But, I trust![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rahaeli - have a look at this post and perhaps more importantly this one. The latter post gives a link to the changes in the ToS. Read the facts before getting worked up about it.
All of that said, I am planning on taking back ups of my journal (really, I've been planning on doing this since about mid way through 2003 and haven't got round to it yet). If anyone else is thinking of doing the same, I suggest waiting for a few days - lots of the back up tools are overloaded atm with lots of people trying to use them, and then have a look through Philip's post and FAQ 8.
Edit If you're really concerned about LJ disappearing or something, I'd suggest compiling a list of your friends' real email addresses/other contact details.
