Well, as we demonstrated earlier, the sharing system is busted in that protected content can be shared out with out the consent of the person who originally posted it. And since people can turn it on for every comment they make, it can happen without them being aware that it is happening.
Now I actually want a system that will allow me to publish what I want to so that who ever I want to see it on what ever platform they choose to see it on. What I don't like here is that it takes control away from me by allowing the few commenters I have the ability to distribute my content to people I don't want to see it, without my permission.
There are two solutions I see:
1) prevent comments from locked posts from being shared. Not perfect since of course a post can go from unlocked to locked and vice versa.
2) Allow me to turn a comment I make on your LJ into a post on my LJ if I want to share it with everyone else.
