The “Log Off Protest” is Over!

This protest was a huge success! Together, we had easily over 1,000 tweets calling action on issues ranging from the NSFW ban to the awful dashboard color change. We even dropped Verizon’s stock once again!

Phase Three was a great success, and the Log Off Protest was an incredible milestone. Thousands of users banded together to make their voices heard on the awful treatment received by Staff. We made our way onto articles, dropped stock, and founded a community.

I thank you all for these incredible past months. When I made the original protest, I had no idea it would be this huge. I was just some college student who worked 24 hours a week and was trying to get through the semester. But with your help, we fought hard. We fought well.

However, I am ending the Log Off Protest.

I only anticipated three phases from the start. The “fourth phase” would simply be deleting, or logging off forever. This is a choice you have to make for yourself. We have completed so much together, and it is time for me to focus on my studies, work, and myself.

I have not openly spoken of myself, but I have mental illnesses. I’ve been diagnosed with depression and anxiety, and this time of the year is always difficult. My mental health has been struggling for the past months, and the stress of leading a protest only adds to this. There is no shame in speaking of your mental health and taking time for yourself.

Despite the protest ending, it does not mean the fight is over. I highly encourage you all to fight together and continue working in unity. Make your own protest. Make your own hashtag and community. Make your voices heard! This does not end here. If anything, the Log Off Protest was merely a beginning to something much greater.

The ‘Tumblr Thieves’ Discord will remain active, but invites will be closed. The Twitter and Tumblr blog will be archived and the ask box/submission box will be closed. I will not be replying to any tweets or dms on the protest.

Thank you all for your support. Thank you all for fighting beside me. I am so grateful for you all, and it was an honor leading you.

See you on the flip side. Thank you.
