New LJ terms of service

I still have my livejournal account. It's got a while before the paid account runs out and it reverts to the lower free level. I don't post there directly any more, but I do log in so that I can check my friends list and comment on other folks' posts.
This morning there's an obnoxious box over the middle of the screen when one logs in. It's about the new terms of service for LJ accounts. If you don't choose to accept it, you're only given the option to log off. That's more than a little annoying. I figure I'll wait a bit to see if any articles regarding the changes show up in the next few days. I'm not going to accept it without knowing what's been changed in the terms and I'm not gonna try to dig through it myself this morning.
One interesting thing is that the notice says that the Russian language version of the ToS is the binding one, not the English language version. That makes me even more leery of it.
