There were some people who wrote about true crime, or who talk about Lolita fashion, whose journals were caught up in the big "Strikethrough" brouhaha a couple of months ago. Their journals were frozen and/or deleted for "inappropriate content" because things like "murder" or "incest" were found in their "Interests" section. There were also some groups for survivors of sexual abuse who were temporarily shut down until the whole mess was sorted out, and that took weeks. In addition to the people who write Harry Potter porn, these people too are setting their LJs to "Adult Content" so that they can't get into trouble for their interests.
And I have several friends who write erotica and either post it or post links to it on their LJs. If they do the "right thing" and put their settings to reflect "adult content", then EVERYTHING on it will disappear unless you change your settings. One of my other friends had 24 people's posts suddenly re-appear on her F-list once she changed her settings.
