SUP bought LJ.

You know, another 20 minutes ago, I confidently wrote that the bloody regime (tm) has no opportunity to remove the post from LJ - they say, it’s impossible to get America, and the SUP - it is only for advertising and additional services, and no access to the database They have no big red button.
And now I can't say that. Today, SUP announced the purchase of LiveJournal from SixApart, newsru.co.il reports with reference to AP. SUP plans to create a new company in San Francisco that will manage the global management of LJ. The details of the transaction and the amount that SixApart will receive are not yet known, but on Monday they promise to continue the story. SUPA President Andrew Paulsen said he hopes to bring back the creator of LJ Brad Fitzpatrick, who left SixApart in Google this year. Also, 9 SixApart employees who worked on LJ will move to the SUP.
