KP Foolishly Attempts to Silence Angry Knitters by Blocking Posts to KP's Facebook Page
As if that would work.

After the blowup on Ravelry, Facebook, Twitter and Reddit about the security breach, Knit Picks responds by trying to block knitters from posting to their Facebook page.
They removed the post box so you can't write directly to the page. They also modified it so you can no longer click on the drop down box and select "Posts by Others."
What you can do is reply to a post of theirs, which may actually be more visable than if you posted directly. When you post directly to a Page is gets tucked away in a little box in the upper right hand corner of the feed. But when you reply to a post it is just...there... visable in the middle of the page for all to see.
I haven't tested it out but I suspect the tagging should also still be working.
If you're interested in following the story there is a new Facebook page for victims of the Knit Picks breach.
