Hey, I'm all for it, unless people come up with good reasons for me
not to try, but I don't think I really have any access to anyone of
any importance at AOL. I've never even done any business with them in
order to have a contact in the business development department or
anything like that.
Also, I think detailed threats against AOL might not be as helpful as
just an ordinary abuse complaint. I mean, have we tried that yet?
I'm under the vague impression that, if anything, AOL is too *quick*
to close accounts for complaints. I think they basically figure why
bother dealing with the expense of defending a customer, right or
wrong.
