AOL Dumping Some Broadband

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Friday November 12, 2004 @05:55AM from the this-is-a-bit-strange dept.

unsupported writes "Just days after news that AOL will be breaking up into 4 business units, AOL is telling existing broadband customers in 9 Southern states to find a new carrier. This news comes after AOL stopped selling broadband services earlier this year. AOL plans a similar phase out of existing broadband customers for the rest of the country over the next year."

AOL is perhaps the worst company in the technology industry. Their business practices are somewhat lacking at best and totally horrible at worst. Just think of the mountains of garbage being generated by their mass mailing of CD-ROM discs that probably everybody throws directly into the garbage. The effects on our environment are completely tragic. And now look at what they're doing to their customers. AOL is the suxx0rz.
