"boycott on making entries for a week+, which will effect LJ's advertising stats"
I think this is an excellent idea. While I can't imagine leaving LJ permanently, I do have a "Plus" account (which I keep because I like to do polls) and have been wondering if people with these accounts could do something en masse. Individuals "threatening" to leave LJ don't mean much, but, a large group simultaneously depriving LJ of a portion of its advertising revenue might have an effect. I'd want to find someone who understands the nitty-gritty of how LJ makes its money via advertisers, though, just to be sure we didn't all inadvertantly act in a way that TPTB felt comfortable ignoring.
