The following was the message in question that went up on Kinja personal blogs yesterday and backchannel info implies that Kinja community groups are going to be targeted as well... :(
“G/O Media, which operates the Kinja platform, will be discontinuing Kinja user blogs. G/O is taking this action due to the anticipated changes to the laws and regulations concerning platform liability for user generated content.
