AOL = Always Overreaching Leeches
America Online in their continuing quest to lose market share, alienate customers, and compete with such worthies as Wal-Mart and Microsoft for the title of Evil Empire have decided you don't really own your work. Ok, so what they mean is that you don't own your work once it passes through their network. If you are collaborating on a story, or designing a car and you like millions of people around the world firm up the details of something via AIM, you lose ownership of the idea. AOL also reserves the right to publish anything that passes across their network. Yahoo, here I come.
Hat tip to Benstanfield for the story.
