ou Must Agree to these Terms of Service to Use AIM Products
By using or registering for an AIM Product (defined below), you agree to these terms and conditions ("Terms of Service") and the AIM Privacy Policy. You agree to accept notices electronically. Each time you use an AIM Product, you reaffirm your acceptance of the then-current Terms of Service. If you do not wish to be bound by these Terms of Service, you may discontinue using the AIM Products.

Take note of this line which backs up everything I said

So EVERYTIME you sign on AIM you are agreeing to whatever the current ToS is...
Hmmmm, would be quite fun to take AOL to court for creating an easy to abuse loophole for themselves.

Maybe the broadband community should team up and try to fight this type of sneakiness. Many game companies (Blizzard, SOE, Mythic to name a few) already make you re-accept their ToS after patches, so it only seems fit that all companies should be required too if any changes occur.

You can't merely take a company to court based on their ToS for a service that is of optional use.

Unfortunately the liberals have taught us that you can take someone to court for anything these days.
