Uh Fool? I know you're twitchy about them mighty corporate baddies, but some actual hands on experimentation showed that what you posted is wrong.
I was able to access: http://www.breakyourchains.org/aol_blocking.htm >From AOL's v. 7 and v. 8 internal Browser, as well as: http://www.breakyourchains.org > AOL has been blocking access to this website. So, no they haven't. In addition, > PositiveAtheism.org: Why Is AOL Blocking Our Website? > http://www.positiveatheism.org/mail/eml9292.htm They're not. I got in to that page and the main page at: http://www.positiveatheism.org > AOL Blocks NRA Web Site > http://www.packing.org/news/article.jsp/1450/ Nope. Got in there, too. Saw their main page as well. > AOL blocks political information > http://www.oblivion.net/oblivion/9/aol.php3 > > ASSESSING FOR BIAS IN AOL'S INTERNET-FILTERING SOFTWARE FOR KIDS > http://www.politicalamazon.com/aol-candidates.html This is a problem only for people who have the 'young teen' setting engaged on their AOL *5* software. AOL is up to version 8 on PC's and X on Macs. AOL 5 was out in 1999, I think? I'm not going to bother switching my account settings to try this one. The software they're complaining about is at least four years old. FYI: AOL 7 used dialup. AOL 8 used cable modem. I normally use either IE or Opera at home or Safari or IE at work on the macs. Been an AOL member since at least 1994, I think. I have never, ever had AOL block a website, and I surf constantly. I only rarely use the internal browser supplied with AOL, 'cuz it sucks, but, again, have never, ever been forbidden from reaching a site by aol. Better luck next time.
