Friends Lock - I can has?

jantalaimon's journal - thank you!
You know how the new profile advertises the Search option with a nice blue-colored spelled-out link right next to your entry count? Well, this search option was on the old profiles as well, but it was a little magnifying glass that nobody ever seems to have used, judging from the frowny-faced posts about the 'new' search option I see cropping up everywhere.
This search option might make it possible for people to view your friends-locked entries even if they are not on your f-list.
ETA: Or maybe not! LJ is being as confusing as always. Go here for some clarifications.
If you don't want that to happen, go here and follow the instructions.

Most of my posts are public, but the ones I lock I lock for a reason.
I'd already clicked to block one of the search options after Botgate, but I didn't know about LJ Search getting up to the same shenanigans.

Same here. I've seen it happen more than once that f-locked entries got made public. I don't know if this was down to untrustworthy friends or the LJ search, but I'd rather not take any risks.
