AOL to Pay $1.25 Million Fine

AOL

America Online Inc. agreed to pay a $1.25 million fine and change its practice of discouraging consumers from canceling service, after New York Attorney General Eliot L. Spitzer started an investigation into the company’s behavior.

Just great. Whiny New Yorkers who are the rudest people on earth getting $95.60 in their pockets. I do agree AOL did have very sneaky and downright fraudulent practices pre-2003.
